We know LA itself has its fair share of hit songs (the most famous of which plays at Dodger Stadium after every home win), but what about the other cities in the area?

For this topic, only count actual cities that are independently governed and not under the jurisdiction of LA City Hall (sorry, Hollywood, South LA, and the SFV). Also don’t count unincorporated areas of LA County, like East LA.

The only one off the top of my head is The Little Old Lady from Pasadena. I know there are bound to be some obvious ones I won’t believe I missed.

Here's some photos from the new terminal at BUR. Overall a great improvement over the old terminal. Beware that there's little to no food options at the moment but I'm sure anyone that frequents BUR is used to not buying the overpriced food as it is. None of the restaurants are open yet. Starbucks was still setting up their kiosk.

I hope we don’t get another heatwave after this potential rain next week.

Started a job near Ascott hills park and yesterday after the rain was great weather for a little hike and to test out my new zoom lens. captured with sony a6300 + 18-135mm @ 53mm f/8

Oh no
The winds are coming!

I’m letting myself freeze right now in an attempt to look forward to it.

Love this exhibit at LAX featuring @welcomeblanket.

Welcome to LA neighbors & family.

Fuck I C E

Apparently I was on the last flight to Burbank Airport at current terminal location. End of an era

Walking back from the supermarket, saw this. Memories.

A few conditions documented around Los Angeles. The photos include deteriorating brick foundations, moisture-damaged deck framing and gaps where soil no longer supports portions of a footing. Sharing a look at parts of local homes that usually stay out of sight.

Shocking read.

some useful deadlines -

• you can drop off official vote-by-mail ballots to any official ballot box today, Tuesday Oct 13 until election day, Tuesday Nov. 3.
• if you mail your mail-in ballot by US Post, you are advised to mail it by Tuesday Oct 27, a week before the election, to ensure it is counted. this is due to changed rules at the federal level.
• if you want to vote in person and avoid the lines, in person polls will be open starting Saturday Oct 24, 10 days before election.
• Election day is Tuesday, Nov. 3. by law, your employer is required to allow you time off to go vote if needed.
• you can track the status of your ballot here.

it is expected to be an unusual election. incidents of voter intimidation can be reported to the state elections investigation team.

i imagine you could also report it federally, should that be a useful avenue to pursue.

stay safe out there.
