We fled the tech talkers and went nearby for burritos, then down to the harbor to take tourist excursion boat out to #Anacapa Island.
That took about an hour to get out to the island, but worth it. Partway there, there was a stink of crude oil, seeping up from the seafloor.
The island looked very bare and bleak, treeless, inaccessible, without water. It looks so uninviting. But being an impossible place for many animals, makes it a good bird rookery.
On way back to #Ventura , we saw dolphins.

Between the windows of #Ventura #CityHall are 24 faces of #brothers or #friars.

In #Ventura #cityhall, you will find a sweeping staircase and “book match” marble panels. In '99, City Council established the #MunicipalArtAcquisition to showcase the visual history of the city. The collection features 100 works by 70 artists. #photography #americana #wa #california #architecture #californication #canon80d #colorphotography #bwphotography #travel #photos #trivia #funfacts

#SouthernCalifornia #wildfires force evacuations, and one is threatening a #nuclear facility
Evacuations remain in place for fires burning in #Ventura and #Riverside counties. The Sandy Fire in #SimiValley is burning near the #SantaSusanaFieldLaboratory, a former #NuclearReactor site, raising #AirQuality concerns.
By Emilee Speck, AccuWeather staff writer
Published May 21, 2026 1:08 PM EDT | Updated May 22, 2026 12:04 PM EDT
Excerpt: "Due to the Sandy Fire’s proximity to the Santa Susana Field Laboratory, a former nuclear reactor and rocket testing facility, officials are conducting air quality monitoring around the fire perimeter.
" 'Monitoring equipment has been proactively deployed to establish background air quality readings and to help assess conditions should the fire advance further into the area,' according to CAL Fire. 'At this time, the fire has not crossed into the Field Laboratory property.'
"Nuclear cleanup continues more than 50 years after a nuclear reactor mishap at the #Rocketdyne site. Fire crews are prioritizing the protection of the facility and the surrounding communities. "

RE: https://hachyderm.io/@iw/116253089733002887
My friend and former manager, Sarah Bacon, is running for congress and just sent a really great launch email[0].
The email is written in normal language, comprehensive, shares the nature of the contest, what is at stake, and why she is the best candidate.
If you are in #SantaBarbara, #Ventura, or #SanLuisObispo, please consider giving Sarah your support.
