Hannah Garcia+FollowMountainair’s can’t-miss events this fallFrom stargazing under New Mexico’s dark skies to honoring veterans and enjoying local music, Mountainair and nearby towns are buzzing with unique events this season. Whether you’re into guided hikes at Salinas Pueblo Missions, want to learn traditional jewelry-making, or are ready for the homecoming parade and bonfire, there’s something for everyone. Veterans can access free resources at special fairs, and families can join in on picnics, rides, and even a touching burial ceremony for forgotten heroes. Which event are you most excited about, or is there something you’d like to see added to the calendar? #Safety #MountainairEvents #CommunityLife00Share
sgarcia+FollowWhat happened to 3rd spaces? a Meijer parking lot, a coffee shop, or a 24/7 dinerBack when I was younger, there was always a place to go when you didn’t want to be at home but weren’t at work or school. Sometimes it was a Meijer parking lot where half the town seemed to show up, other times it was a coffee shop or a 24/7 diner where you could sit for hours with friends, drink endless coffee and just hang out. These days I leave the house, look for somewhere to land, and it feels like there is nothing. Teens and young adults do not seem to be gathering the way they used to. Maybe it is just me noticing, but the sense of those casual meet-up spots feels like it has disappeared. #CommunityLife #Nostalgia #SocialSpaces #LifeChanges #Discussion #RetroVibes #PublicSpaces #Millennials 20Share
Jordan Williams+FollowHarford Mall’s Glow-Up: Whole Foods Incoming!Remember when malls were the weekend hangout? Harford Mall’s about to get a major facelift—think less empty corridors, more open-air strolls and a shiny new Whole Foods (plus Amazon Fresh nearby). The old Macy’s is coming down to make way for green spaces, apartments, and shops you’ll actually want to visit. The big shift? Malls are ditching their ‘dead zone’ vibes for walkable, community-friendly spots. Bonus: developers say traffic won’t get worse. Fingers crossed! #HarfordMall #RetailRevamp #WholeFoods #CommunityLife #MoneyLifehacks #Shopping10Share
