@BurbankCA @BurbankPD @BurbankFire @BurbankH2OPower After the last storm caused 2 trees to fall on my street, I submitted a request with the @BurbankCA to have the trees in front of my house pruned, trimmed, or removed. Been months and No response. Now we have to leave our home during this storm out of fear of more trees falling

I keep both in my purse now because I have extra time sitting in the car waiting to pick up my daughter from school / practice / rehearsals. But I find myself arriving an extra 15 mim early now, to have more time with Yoda and Christie. #AmWaiting

after five years, i have just now noticed my used copy of Carr’s What is History? has former owner’s name inside: a certain “N.Z. Davis”

A friend of mine is asking for history and historical fiction recommendations for his (very smart and precocious) 11-year-old daughter. Graphic novels also fair game. Have at it!

@williamlegate My Pfizer experience…
1st dose-extremely sore arm for almost 24 hours.
2nd dose-made point to drink water and do big but gentle arm movements every 30 minutes after shot & had 10% of soreness.
Booster-same as 2nd dose.

Happy birthday, Leo Politi! Born on this day in 1908 in Fresno, California, Politi is pictured here on Olvera Street selling his art to tourists. He went on to illustrate over thirty books, and in 1977, was commissioned to paint a mural at El Pueblo Historic Monument. (1/2)

Today I gave my first docent tour since before the shut down. So happy to be able to share with visitors the highlights of this #museum as well as the temporary St. Joseph’s Table special exhibit.
