Then I headed out to the Chico Fall Yo-yo Contest. Of course it started late and I had to be in Oroville by noon for the next assignment.
I got a few pictures and took off.
To the Ehmann Home.
Today I learned a little about Perry Mason.
Not much, just a little.
Raymond Burr played the character for like fifty years.
Erle Stanley Gardner wrote the books. Hedda Hopper's son acted in the show too.
That's all I really learned. Gardner has a connection to Oroville but I didn't find out what it was. I'll have to read the story in the morning.
Butte College football was next.
Pretty good game, exciting, fairly close, Roadrunners won.
I'm supposed to be impartial but I want the local team to win.
Last night was a little easier to be impartial with two local teams, and I know the Almond Bowl will be fun to see which team comes out on top.
There's a big fire burning grassland up north of Chico right now but luckily Jason O'Hanlon got photos so I don't have to drive out there tonight.
I just have to get a standalone of Oktoberfest and some art for Ashiah's story and write up something about the fire and the storm and do death notices and a sports roundup. Oh and any breaking news. In eight hours or less.
I'm kind of whining right now, but it really is fun.
