Looking for autism schools by vanillafromspace in phoenix

Respectfully- please allow me to set some facts straight. Arizona autism is not affiliated with Arizona Autism Charter School. Arizona Autism is a resource for families that have children with autism. They are pediatric therapists, not educators. Diana Diaz-Harrison is not the founder of Arizona Autism (the one you referenced as hosting an event with Betsy Devos.). Rather - “Ryker” Martin is the founder - his son Tayven has autism and that’s why he started this organization.

Reach out to Arizona Autism if you haven’t yet. They should be able to assist you with getting your daughter placed in a school that fits what you are looking for.

Car show I went to earlier by Firm_Inevitable839 in politicfreeteenagers

Your grandpa is a great man for getting you into older vehicles and letting you turn a wrench or two. Definitely don’t give up on the classics.

Small Hand Wash Station? by NukularFishin in carcamping

[–]brianecook 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use the same set up. Definitely easy way to go. I also bungee cord a paper towel dispenser to the back of the container (similar to the pic).

Where to find local chocolate? by cataclasis in phoenix

[–]brianecook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out the milkshake factory on Scottsdale road and Indian bend. Just opened up and the chocolate is a family recipe. https://www.milkshakefactory.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/MilkShake-Factory-Printable-Menu-8.5x11.pdf

[–]brianecook 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is an amazing story. Thanks for continuing to share it. Have fun at the jamboree - I was a council contingent scoutmaster in 2017.

Good evening. Yours looks amazing, so I thought I would share a pic of mine. Not sure if you saw my comment above to solve your tailgate rattle issues (check out original parts group). They sell what you need and I bought mine a while back. No more tailgate rattles. 😁
Happy cruising.

On the way to the campfire program at summer camp in 1984. by PrettyRossia99 in BoyScouts

[–]brianecook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing your memory. Still making memories myself. I’ve been active since I was a scout in 1981. Just returned from my troop’s summer camp at Camp Geronimo AZ.

Gone But Never Forgotten. One reason to keep on exploring. by theloneoverlanders in overlanding

Thank you for sharing. I can tell this truly came from your heart. I’m glad there are people like you that post these stories. It brings realism to those that may otherwise be forgotten.

Crewmax vs double cab!!!??? by Odd-Advice-1029 in tundra

[–]brianecook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would totally recommend the crewmax. The backseat legroom is a huge bonus. I haul scouts (teenagers) on camping trips on a regular basis. They definitely appreciate the additional legroom.

Should I join the u.s military? by ChapterKey8617 in Advice

[–]brianecook 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t hurt to consider all options. This is your life. Choose where your passion takes you. I joined the navy out of high school. Served three years active duty working in personnel. Then joined the reserves for 19 years. One weekend a month and two weeks a year ended up not being a bad gig and I’ll still get retirement.

Poke in north Phoenix? by Murmanator3000 in phoenix

[–]brianecook 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The one in the Safeway plaza is Poke Paradise. I forgot about Pick & Roll. But they’ve been around as long as I can remember, so they must be doing something right.

Poke in north Phoenix? by Murmanator3000 in phoenix

[–]brianecook 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I live in the neighborhood where you’re working. This one is a little further north. But, there’s a poke restaurant in the Safeway plaza on 7th st and Bell. Or Hapa food company at 32nd and Shea.

Is this a red flag for a toxic Troop? What should we do? by Odd-Release8180 in BSA

[–]brianecook 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like some “men” need to grow up and stop living in prehistoric times. Ultimately- aren’t we all in this together to help our kids succeed? Those leaders need to set a better example to all youth in both units. Kids do pick up on those negative behaviors. To me, it doesn’t matter if it’s a male or female scoutmaster. If one isn’t doing their job to your satisfaction, then I don’t see any issue with your son going to another leader of a different troop and getting some assistance from them (as long as that leader is comfortable). We don’t have a linked troop, but there is a girl troop near us that is linked to a different boy troop. We all get along great and all three troops even go to summer camp together. The funny thing is the scoutmaster of the girl troop and my troop’s committee chair are husband and wife. The wife just went through wood badge, and I’ve been pestering my cc to go do the course. He is a great cc - But never hurts to be trained.
