San Diego FireStorm era 2007
Greetings
As you all know my town is a literal giant fireball. Today is day four of the fires, and today it was declared a federal disaster. I haven't had to work a single day this week, (that's not a complaint on my part.) What started out as the faint smell of firewood on sunday afternoon has turned into this insane fire you all see on tv.
It's pretty messed up, a few of my co workers were evacuated from their homes, In fact a staggering 500,000 peeps were evacuated from their homes. Thats a little under half the population of the entire City of San Diego. Crazy shit right? Anywho, I set out with my trusty ol Canon to take some shots of from around town during this event. Those who know me will tell you that I am a damn fool, but not foolish enough to get up in the fires path for a picture or two.
These are just pics of the smoke and ash filled sky near the downtown area, taken from my girlfriend's front yard and down at the harbor. The time of these shots was somewhere between 3:30 and 5 pm, you can get a clue as to what the air quality was by the tint of the sky. Many peeps were wearing bandanas or breathing masks.
It's pretty amazing how the city has come together during this event, people have really looked out for one another, strangers and all.

Warriorsss, come out and Playyyyy
See? Even Jessica Alba is a warrior fan!
Well, that magical time of year is approaching once again, and i'm not talking about thanksgiving or christmas. I'm talking the Tip off of the NBA season and the first home game of My Golden State Warriors.
Those who know me know that I have been a struggling warrior fan since I was a wee lad, or a young cholo. Last season, we broke our 10+ year drought and upset the Mav's in the first round of the playoffs. This year, we are Without J-Rich, but we still have Baron, & the nucleaus that got us there last year, plus Marco Bellenelli. The Itallion Sensation, who can shoot the lights out of the building.
I think it's going to be a tough season none the less, The Pacific Division is crazy, The Suns still have Nash & Amare, and The lakers still have Kobe, but I like our chances.
