This past week was a glorious one as the 4th of July celebra-tion fell in the middle of the week. There is nothing like a few extra days off during a hot summer. Many of us enjoyed the baseball All-Star game, a weekend barbecue, previews of the start of a nice football season right around the corner, and best of all the wonderful summer days which provide us with the opportunity to just relax.

For most of South San Diego, you may not have know it, but last Saturday we were living in Al Alvarado’s world. On June 23, Al celebrated his 80th birthday and the City of San Diego, National City, and Chula Vista, along with a Congressional Proclamation declared it “Al Alvarado Day.” There was quite an impressive list of dignitaries who honored Al. He was even named an honorary police officer of National City.
