🚧 I-215 Construction, Big Lots Closing, Trivia Nights & More!
lots of live music in the area tonight
Happy Thursday Afternoon, Neighbor!
Ahoy, Mateys! This har be Talk Like a Pirate Day. 🏴☠️ So, let’s all pillage us some booty and drown in our rum. Or just brush up on your pirate lingo here.
Also, are you ready for some serious construction. I know I’m not! But, well, it’s comin’. A whole big bundle of stuff is being done to the interchange of I-215 and Summerlin Parkway. 🚧 Which is kind of funny. Because, honestly, when has that interchange ever actually been completed? I mean, it’s an interchange on one side and a giant dirt pit on the other.
But, anyway, now it’s gonna be a construction zone too. And construction may start as early as this year. Woohoo! Who’s excited?
Shiver me timbers. Time to hit the grog.

But first up, a quick note from our sponsor.
These cannabis gummies keep selling out in 2024
If you've ever struggled to enjoy cannabis due to the harshness of smoking or vaping, you're not alone. That’s why these new cannabis gummies caught our eye.
Mood is an online dispensary that has invented a “joint within a gummy” that’s extremely potent yet federally-legal. Their gummies are formulated to tap into the human body’s endocannabinoid system.
Although this system was discovered in the 1990’s, farmers and scientists at Mood were among the first to figure out how to tap into it with cannabis gummies. Just 1 of their rapid onset THC gummies can get you feeling right within 5 minutes!

TODAY’S HAPPY HOURS & EATS 🍷

But you’ll find plenty of other places to go on our Thursday Happy Hours page.
Did You Know? 🌲🌳
There are more trees on Earth than there are stars in our galaxy.
How bonkers is that?
We often think of the night sky as endless. With all those starry nights and the infinite darkness that stretches between, one might think the stars we can see would easily outnumber our leafy friends here on Earth. But our tree friends have our stars neighbors beat. By a lot!
Just how much? About ten times. At least.
Scientists estimate that there are around 3 trillion trees here on Earth. That’s over 400 trees for every person on the planet. Meanwhile, the number of stars in The Milky Way? A measly 100 to 400 billion. That gives trees a heck of an edge.
But things shift dramatically when you expand the view to the observable universe. Scientists know there are around 100 to 400 billion galaxies out there, each with their own 100 billion stars. That brings the total number of stars in the observable universe to a staggering 1 to 4 SEPTILLION. That’s a LOT. So, unsurprisingly, stars win on a cosmic scale.
Still, here on Earth, trees are the dominant force. They may not light up our sky, but they're Earth's star players - quietly outnumbering our galactic neighbors and fueling the air we breathe one leaf at a time.

AROUND THE VALLEY 📍
Here are some things Around the Valley we think might be of interest -
Who Left the Oven On? ☀️
Worried it’s only been super hot here this summer? Well, worry no more! Because it hasn’t just been super hot, it’s also been super dry!
Monsoon season is almost over and the rain has been… how shall we say?… sparse. Like near-record-breaking sparse.
There’s been plenty of wind though!
Bye, Bye Big Lots 👋
Love getting your shop on at Big Lots? Well, you better get it while the gettin’s good.
Big Lots filed for bankruptcy this month, and now they’re closing stores. A lot of them. Seven of the nine Big Lots in the valley are going by way of the chopping block.
That’s the bad news.
The goods news is these stores are still currently open and having closing sales. So, if you enjoy browsing through Big Lots food aisles to see what imported jams and organic candy they happen to have on their shelves, you might want to hop to it. Just make sure to leave me some of the good stuff.
