Garage Fire

This fire happened just a few hours ago in the trailer park off 25th St. about a mile from where I live. We heard the sirens but really didn't pay attention to them at first. Then a few minutes later, we then heard a helicopter and my daughter went into her room and noticed it was a news helicopter hovering just up the coast. I had her start checking the local news stations and came across ABC 7 doing the live aerial shot of the fire. We grabbed our shoes, I grabbed my purse and keys and my daughter grabbed my camera bag and out the door we went!

It was a garage fire. I'm happy to report that no one was hurt!

Across the Marina

It's Friday and since it's raining here in Southern California today, I figured I'd go with the theme of Rain. I just love how the building stands out against the dark rain clouds.

Osprey

I was driving thru the Coast Guard base heading to my husband's office, and noticed several people standing near the pier looking up at one of the light posts and taking pictures with their camera phones. I looked up and saw a bird that I had never seen before. My daughter and I were telling my husband about it and took him down to show him. After my daughter and I left, he went and took a picture and sent it to me. I looked it up and discovered it was an Osprey!
