Welcome
to Tucson.Halversen.com (aka
tucson.home.att.net)! Just like The Local Couple's Guide to Tucson,
these sites
promises to be: ad free, pop-up free, and just plain free. So look
around, see what you can find out. |

Traveling
to Tucson? Or just looking for
something new to do in The Old Pueblo? Then check out The
Local Couple's Guide
to Tucson. With recommendations
on: restaurants, places to shop,
great things to do in Tucson, and even places to avoid, this site
provides the Local Couple's opinions
about what they like best about
Tucson. Note: IE 5.5, IE 6.0, and Netscape 4.x all have some problems displaying this site properly, since none is CSS (a 1997 standard) compliant. |
 | In poking around the Library of Congress web site, 1/2 of the Local Couple came across old (well, 1980s vintage, mainly) photos of one of the most historically interesting parts of downtown Tucson, the Barrio. Armed with old photos and a camera, the Local Couple set out to record the changes that had taken place. Be forewarned, it's 60 or so then-and-now type photos, so you might just want to check out a few a day. |
 | A
small site dedicated to Tom Mix, who as some
of you might know, was the premiere Oater actor in the silent film
days.
Well, not really about him, per
se, but about his death that
occurred about fifty miles north of Tucson, and the monument that marks
the spot. Here you can find out the truth about his death. Was he
really
done in by a high-speed suitcase? FYI, this has been completely redone, including new scans. |
 |
The only
person to have been declared
"Public Enemy Number One," captured right here in Tucson, January 25,
1934. Make sure to get the scoop on how Tucson's finest took down
Dillinger and his mob. |
 |
As
it happens, we write a small monthly
newsletter which includes a book review column. Never wanting to waste
good material, it is going online. Check it out, it just might have
your next great read! Updated near the first of each month. |
 | Finally
Here! A site dedicated to the
funky outdoor art works in Tucson. We are currently
accessioning pieces for this virtual museum of publicly accessible art.
A new
piece
every Sunday, or thereabouts. Feel free to send your suggestion to for inclusion. Just remember to include the location and any information you have about the piece. Also, they must be free to all. As always, your e-mail address will only be used to to thank you, or if we have questions about your suggestion. That's guaranteed. |
 | A
small but growing site we host for the TAMC
(of which the singing half of the Local Couple is a member). If you'd
like to join in some great Gospel singing and have fun doing it, drop
by
on a rehearsal night and sign up. |
