So, tonight is the big night. After almost a year away, hockey is back with the Los Angeles Kings playing Dallas tonight in their road opener and against Gretzky’s Coyotoes tomorrow in the Staples Center. Annette and I have bought an 11 pack of tickets for the upcoming season, sitting in section 218, a little further back than we’ve had for the last two seasons. Of course, since we bought these tickets directly from the Kings rather than another season ticket holder, we’ll see more marquee games than we have in the past. We’ll see how the season shapes up but so far, I think that the Kings will be a playoff team this year. If not, Jeremy Roenick will entertain us.

Go Kings Go!

Here’s the fire from my place towards my neighbor’s place. This fire is too close for comfort.

Here’s a picture of the fire in Oak Park, Californnia. This was shot behind my condo complex during the morning of September 29th.

I’ve added the following photographic links:
