Things To Do In San Diego: Thursday, January 7-Sunday, January 10, 2016

There are a million things for me to write about this week, even though my only show this week has been Omega Three at Casbah. First is the crazy-ass El Nino three storm system that has rolled through this week. It's a beautiful thing with regard to our drought, but it is certainly causing mayhem and havoc on our small businesses and residents. Our decrepit city infrastructure certainly isn't helping matters, so I'll take the opportunity to plug the San Diego River Park Foundation. Darren and I volunteer for cleanups when we can, but if you're not involved, you have no idea how much goes into preserving, restoring, cleaning, and reclaiming public lands along our river, from the mountains all the way to Ocean Beach. This is public land that belongs to us and should be maintained and preserved for all of us. Of course, that leads into the terrorists taking over the wildlife refuge in Oregon. Seriously?! Call it what it is. This is the best article I've seen about the situation thus far. I'm plugging away working my ass off for DoSD and trying to get this all built for our launch, so do me a favor and sign up for the emails, won't you? In the meantime, I would have an inflated sense of self to consider myself part of the birder community, but here's a sweet little hummingbird in the rain at Mission Trails from Tuesday. (Also, if anyone has recommendations on where to get my camera cleaned, please let me know!!!) Friday through Sunday listings are after the jump.
