The Hillcrest Sign repairs are underway!
California Neon came out this morning to repair the beloved neighborhood sign.
The center lane eastbound was closed at University and Fifth avenues for a few
hours while the worker removed one of the transformers. It takes four of them to
keep our landmark sign lit. Wet winter weather usually causes problems, but the
with only 1.42" of rain falling over the last ten months, the neon experts are scratching
their heads. After weeks of seeing only “HILL” glowing to the east, the Hillcrest BID
Executive Director Warren Simon says the “CREST” should be lit again soon.

“My assessment is that George W. Bush’s record on running up debt to burden our children is the worst since Ronald Reagan; his record on government surveillance of citizens is the worst since Richard Nixon; his record on foreign-military policy has gotten us into the worst foreign mess we’ve been in since Lyndon Johnson sank us into Vietnam; his economic record is the worst since Herbert Hoover; his record of tax favoritism for the rich is the worst since Calvin Coolidge; his record of trampling on civil liberties is the worst since Woodrow Wilson.”

San Diego Floral Association is seeking
volunteers to help celebrate its centennial year in 2007. All of
their activities depend on the good will and participation of
volunteers. An array of opportunities are available including working

tours, classes or workshops. The “home” for volunteers is the Office

Park. Visitors may drop by any weekday and the first/third Saturdays of
the month from 10am-3:00pm. It’s a great place to browse horticultural
books or get advice. Planning is underway for a number of special
events to mark the centennial, and many enthusiastic volunteers are
needed. Consider giving your time to this wonderful organization. Get
