@SpeckelsOrgan always has enjoyable Sunday afternoon concerts. Even better when you can see the organist. Rented beach umbrellas should be allowed only in the back half of seating or off to one side.

I am told the tree @cityofSanDiego has chosen for in front of my house is a carrotwood. The internet says they grow 30 feet high and wide — way too big for this space; are an invasive species and very messy. Thanks a lot, City “leaders.”
I love trees but I am not happy that @sandiego just decides to put a tree in front of my house and I have no say in the type or placement. Am I expected to sweep up its leaves, seeds, fruit, pods or whatever it may drop? Well, I can’t and won’t be doing that.
Yet another ugly, sharp, hostile-feeling “landscaping” of a traffic roundabout dangerous to pedestrians trying to guess what direction cars will be heading as they whip around the circle. In City Heights at Wightman and who knows; they took out the street signs. Very helpful.
A brush fire was cooking toward the east side of Santee on Thanksgiving morning. Firefighters had it out reasonably fast.

.@CALFIRESANDIEGO is monitoring a vegetation fire south of Campo, well into Mexico. The Fire is not a threat to the US at this time, but you may smell smoke in east county.
A lot of poison oak, turned red already for fall, along Wooded Hill Trail on Mt Laguna, and at the top. Beware! It’s likely all over these hills.

Re-assessed from the air by copter 2. The crew chief says it's about a half acre and the firefighters on the ground have it surrounded. #morleyfire
If these are not the ugliest, most out of character condos/apts for the City Heights residential neighborhood, I would like to see what is worse!
Can’t we expect better from the city when designs are submitted?

Power out at my house. @sdge recording is so very helpful, telling me there may be an outage in my area. No method is offered for me to find out if it is just me, or others in City Hts.
