>>> THE REMNANTS OF THE FIRE DAMAGED OCEANSIDE SPHERE ARE SAID TO BE CLEANED UP.

TONYA THORNE SAYS THAT INCLUDES THE PEER HAMMERHEAD AND WHAT IS LEFT OF THE OLD RUBIES DINER AND RIND BOX FOOD KIOSK.

>> MORE THAN FIVE MONTHS AFTER THE OCEANSIDE PIER CAUGHT FIRE, DEMOLITION OF THE DAMAGED PORTION BEGINS.

>> NEXT IS TO START SCAFFOLDING INSTALLATION, SO WE CAN START BRINGING DOWN THE OLD RUBIES RESTAURANTS, THE BRINE BOX, AND REMOVE THE PLANKS, SO WE CAN TAKE A LOOK AT THE SUBSTRUCTURE OF THE PEER, DO A STRUCTURAL ASSESSMENT AND FIND OUT WHAT WE NEED TO REBUILD.>> BRIAN THOMAS SAYS THEY WILL SET UP SCAFFOLDING ON MONDAY, TO PREVENT DEBRIS FROM FALLING INTO THE OCEAN.

MID-OCTOBER IS WHEN DEMOLITION IS EXPECTED TO START.

>> THEY WILL MOVE TO QUITMAN ON AND OFF, AND USE SPIDERS AROUND THE EQUIPMENT TO KEEP PEOPLE OUT OF THE WAY.

THEY WILL BE USING CRANES, THEY WILL BE USING A LOT OF MANUAL LABOR TO DUMP THINGS INTO PORTABLE SYSTEMS.

>> THOMAS DOES NOT EXPECT LONG CLOSURES.

CONSULTANTS FOR MARINE MAMMAL LIFE ALSO BE ON SITE, TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF THE ANIMALS, AND THE ENVIRONMENT.>> THEY WILL BE OUT HERE EVERY DAY, DURING DEMOLITION.

IF THEY NOTICE MARINE MAMMALS IN THE AREA, THEY WILL SLOW DOWN THE WORK.

IF THEY NOTICE ANY ANIMALS IN DISTRESS, THEY WILL HAVE THE WORK CEASE AND DESIST UNTIL THEY ARE GONE.>> THE PEER REBUILD IS THREE TO FEWER YEARS AWAY.>> WE DON'T KNOW THE COST TO REBUILD UNTIL WE KNOW THAT STRUCTURAL ASSESSMENT, AND THE SIZE THE TENANT WANTS TO REBUILD.>> THE SIZE OF THE RESTAURANT AND KIOSK WILL HAVE THE SAME FOOTPRINT AS BEFORE.

THOMAS IS THE PEER WILL REOPEN BEFORE THE RESTAURANT IS BUILT.>> AS SOON AS WE GET THE DECKING AND RAILING BACK ON, WE ARE GOING TO OPEN UP THE HAMMERHEAD PORTION TO THE PUBLIC, WHILE STILL GOING THROUGH THE PROCESS AND GET IT PERMITTED THROUGH ALL THE VARIOUS AGENCIES.

WHEN WE GET READY TO BUILD THAT, THEN WE WILL HAVE TO CLOSE OFF A PORTION OF THE PEER AGAIN>> NO SUSPICIOUS ACTIVITY HAS BEEN FOUND.

INVESTIGATORS BELIEVE THE FIRE WAS ACCIDENTAL.

INSURANCE IS COVERING SOME OF THE DEMOLITION AND REBUILD, WHICH IS EXPECTED TO LAST THROUGH THE END OF THIS YEAR.>>> LEARNING ABOUT CLIMATE CHANGE IS A NEW ACTUATION REQUIREMENT FOR UC SAN DIEGO STUDENTS.

KATIE ANASTAS SAYS THIS IS THE FIRST SCHOOL IN THE UC SYSTEM TO IMPLEMENT THE POLICY.>> UC SAN DIEGO LEADERS HOPE ADDRESSING CLIMATE CHANGE LIES IN THEIR STUDENTS.>> I THINK IF YOU CARE ABOUT YOURSELF AND OTHERS, YOU SHOULD CARE ABOUT THE SCIENCE CONCERNING THE EARTH AND WHERE WE ARE.>> THIS FRESHMAN IS IN A CLASS CALLED THE OCEANS, IT COVERS OCEAN CHEMISTRY AND MARINE BIOLOGY.

THE PROFESSOR SAYS THEY DOUBLED THE SIZE OF THE CLASS, THIS FALL, TO HELP STUDENTS WITH THE CLIMATE CHANGE REQUIREMENT.>> IS EXCITING, THEY ARE TEACHING US ABOUT THE OCEANS, THAT IS REACHING STUDENTS AT A POINT THEY ARE STILL DISCOVERING WHO THEY ARE.>> NOT ALL OF THOSE WHO DEVELOPED THE GROUP WERE SCIENTISTS LIKE HER.

>> EVERYONE ON THE COMMITTEE WAS FROM EVERY POSSIBLE DISCIPLINE.

THE MOST VOCAL AND POWERFUL PEOPLE WERE NOT NECESSARILY CLIMATE SAGES, THEY WERE FROM ARTS, HUMANITIES, LITERATURE, SOCIAL SCIENCES.

THEY REALLY UNDERSTAND THAT CLEMENT CHANGE IS NOT SIMPLY A SCIENTIFIC PROBLEM, IT IS A SCIENTIFIC FACT, BUT IT IS A SOCIAL AND CULTURAL PROBLEM.

THE COMMITTEE CONSIDERED REQUIRING ALL STUDENTS TO TAKE THE SAME CLASS.

INSTEAD, THEY WANTED TO SHOW THAT CLIMATE CHANGE IS CONNECTED TO ALL FIELDS OF STUDY.

WE DON'T WANT TO SAY THINGS ARE BAD, SEE YOU LATER.

WE'VE LEFT THIS GENERATION IN A BAD PLACE, AND INSTEAD, THE FACULTY REALIZED WHAT WE WANT IS TO GIVE THIS GENERATION AND THE NEXT GENERATION ALL THE TOOLS TO COMBAT CLIMATE CHANGE.

>> THERE ARE MORE THAN 40 CLASSES THAT NEED THE REQUIREMENT AT SCRIPPS INSTITUTION OF OCEANOGRAPHY OFFERS SEVERAL OF THEM.

OTHERS INCLUDE URBAN PLANNING, ANTHROPOLOGY, AND ECONOMICS.

>>> WE WILL BE FALLING TO THE MID-60s OVERNIGHT, AS LOW CLOUDS BRING IN THAT MARINE LAYER FOR THE COAST.

WE WILL KEEP THINGS MORE COMFORTABLE BY THE COAST, COMPARED TO INLAND COMMUNITIES.

WE WILL TALK ABOUT THE HEAT THAT IS STILL AHEAD IN THE FORECAST, COMING UP.>>> LATER THIS MONTH, THE CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL IN SAN DIEGO COUNTY WILL BE CONTACTING SOUTH BAY RESIDENTS ABOUT HOW THEY ARE BEING IMPACTED BY THE CROSS- BORDER SEWAGE SPILLS.

ANDREW DYER SAYS IT IS ALL PART OF AN EFFORT TO UNDERSTAND HOW PEOPLE ARE AFFECTED.>> IN THE SOUTH SAN DIEGO COMMITTEE OF NESTOR, COUNTY WORKERS AND VOLUNTEERS ARE TRYING TO GET THE WORD OUT ABOUT AN HEALTH SURVEY TO ASSESS THE IMPACT OF TIJUANA CITY SEWAGE.

THE IMPACT WILL BE ASSESSED, THE COUNTY IS OUT WITH WHEN TO KNOW IF OFFICIALS COME KNOCKING.

THE INTERIM PUBLIC HEALTH OFFICER SAYS THEY'VE BEEN PREPARING FOR THE SURVEY FOR SEVERAL MONTHS.>> WE'VE BEEN PUTTING A LOT OF WORK IN THE BACKGROUND TO MAKE SURE WE HAVE THE RIGHT VOLUNTEERS, THIS IS NO SMALL FEAT TO CANVAS 6000 HOMES, TO GET READY FOR THE CDC TO ARRIVE.

THEY SELECTED SEVEN HOMES FROM 37 BLOCKS AT RANDOM.

THE GOAL IS TO CONDUCT IN- PERSON INTERVIEWS.

210 HOUSEHOLDS IN TOTAL.

THEY WANT TO LET OFFICIALS DIG DEEPER INTO THE IMPACTS.>> MENTAL HEALTH DATA, HOW IS THIS AFFECTING YOUR PROPERTY, OR THE IMPACT ON YOUR FINANCES?>> THE NEXT TWO WEEKS ARE MORE OF AN AWARENESS CAMPAIGN, SHE SAYS, SHE WANTS THE COMMUNITY TO UNDERSTAND WHAT THEY ARE DOING, AND FOR PEOPLE TO PARTICIPATE, IF ASKED.

THE COUNTY SAYS THE DATA WILL CONFIRM DECISIONS IN THE ONGOING EFFORT TO DEAL WITH THE PROBLEM.>>> HERE IN SAN DIEGO, LIFESAVING MEDICINES LIKE NALOXONE HAVE REDUCED THE NUMBER OF FENTANYL OVERDOSES, BUT MEXICO'S RESTRICTIVE DRUG POLICIES MAKE NALOXONE ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO GET IN TIJUANA.

ESTABLISH A LEASE SAYS TOSTADAS - - GUSTAVO SO LEASE - - CARMINA RUNS THE NEEDLE EXCHANGE PROGRAM.

THIS IS THE CITY'S ONLY NEEDLE EXCHANGE AND SAFE USE CLINIC.

REGULARS HERE TOSS USED NEEDLES IN A LITTLE RED BOX, WHILE REESE GIVES THEM CLEAN ONES, TO PREVENT THE SPREAD OF DISEASE LIKE HIV AND HEPATITIS.

IN THE BACK OF THE CLINIC, WOMEN USED DRUGS IN A SAFE ENVIRONMENT, SIT ON A COUCH, LISTEN TO MUSIC, EVEN MAKE ART, ALL PART OF THE EFFORT TO REDUCE OVERDOSES.

BUT THERE'S SOMETHING MISSING.

THE MEDICINE USED TO PREVENT OVERDOSES IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO GET IN TIJUANA.

NALOXONE HAS BEEN A LIFESAVER FOR FENTANYL USERS ACROSS THE GLOBE.>> I THINK EVERYONE ON THE PLANET SHOULD BE CARRYING IT NOW, THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM, AND MANY COUNTRIES.>> GRETCHEN IS FOUNDER OF A NEW PATH, A SAN DIEGO BASED NONPROFIT.

KNOWN BY BRAND NAME NARCAN, THE TREATMENT IS AVAILABLE IN SCHOOLS AND VENDING MACHINES THROUGHOUT THE REGION.

SHE SAYS THE ACHIEVEMENTS HAVE NOT COME WITHOUT PUSHBACK.

SOME FEEL PROVIDING MEDICINES LIKE THIS CAN ENCOURAGE ILLEGAL DRUG USE.>> IF YOU THINK IT IS BAD HERE, IT IS EVEN WORSE IN MEXICO.

THIS FORMER MEXICAN RESIDENT HAS SPENT YEARS DOWNPLAYING MEXICO'S YEAR INFLUENCE ON THE CRISIS, AND HE HAS BLOCKED EFFORTS TO MAKE NALOXONE MORE ACCESSIBLE IN MEXICO.>> BASICALLY HE IS SAYING THEY ARE BEYOND SAVING, THEY SHOULD DIE.>> A DRUG ABUSE EXPERT HAS SPENT YEARS VISITING DRUG TREATMENT CENTERS.

HE SAYS THEY CUT FEDERAL FUNDING TO NONPROFITS IN 2018.

>> EVER SINCE 2018, WE HAD TO CROSS ALL THE SUPPLIES, SYRINGES, PIPES, NALOXONE, FOIL, EVERYTHING WE USE FOR HARM REDUCTION, WE BRING IN FROM THE UNITED STATES OR CANADA.>> THAT'S RIGHT, PEOPLE ARE SNUGGLING NALOXONE FROM THE UNITED STATES INTO MEXICO, SOMETIMES AT GREAT PERSONAL RISK.

>> I HAVE BEEN FOUND CROSSING WITH 300 VIALS, AND THEY WANTED ME TO PAY $8000.

I DIDN'T HAVE THE MONEY, THE WOULD IMPOUND MY CAR.>> MEMBERS OF THE NATIONAL GUARD HAVE BEEN KNOWN TO CONFISCATE NO OXEN.

THE SHORTAGE HAS GOTTEN SO BAD, LOCAL MEDICS AND POLICE OFFICERS ARE ASKING TO BE SUPPLIED WITH THE MEDICINE.

>> I HAVE HEARD FROM THEM WHAT IS THE MEDICATION TO TREAT THEM, CAN I HAVE SOME, SO I CAN TREAT MORE PEOPLE TODAY?

>> ONE DR. HAS TRAINED FIRST RESPONDERS IN HOW TO ADMINISTER NO OXEN.

>> THEY DON'T HAVE ACCESS TO NO OXEN, THEY SEE OVERDOSE AND THEY CAN ONLY OFFER OXYGEN, AND THAT'S IT.

IT IS NOT ENOUGH.>> HE SAYS MORE COLLABORATION IS NEEDED.

THIS IS NOT A NORTH AMERICAN PRODUCT, IT'S THE UNITED STATES, CANADA, AND MEXICO, WE NEED TO FIND A COMMON SOLUTION FOR A COMMON PROBLEM.>> ONE WOMAN USED HEROIN, AND LATER, FENTANYL, FOR MORE THAN 25 YEARS, BEFORE GETTING SOBER AT THE CLINIC.

SHE FELT SAFE USING DRUGS IN THE CLINIC.

PEOPLE WERE READY TO HELP IF SHE EVER PASSED OUT, AND SHE SAID SHE DID, A FEW TIMES.

NOW THAT SHE IS SOBER, SHE STILL COMES TO THE CLINIC, SOMETIMES JUST TO HANG OUT, BUT MOSTLY TO VOLUNTEER.

SHE LIKES TO CLEAN THE SAME ROOM SHE ONCE GOT HIGH.

SHE THINKS OF IT IS A GOOD WAY TO GIVE BACK TO THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE HELPED HER SO MUCH.>> GUSTAVO HAS BEEN COVERING THE CROSS-BORDER FENCE NO ISSUE EXTENSIVELY IN RECENT WEEKS.

MANY ARC MAKING A CRITICAL STOP IN THE WETLANDS AS THE AIR SHOW COMES AIRCRAFT FOR A THREE DAY PERFORMANCE.

THOSE PLANES FLY LOW AND BECOME A STRIKE HAZARD FOR THE PLANES.

THERE IS ALSO AN ACTIVE OIL FIELD, ANOTHER SAFETY CONCERN.

>> 800 SPECIES CALL THIS AREA HOME, 45 OF THEM ARE RARE, THREATENED, OR ENDANGERED, INCLUDING THE FEDERALLY PROTECTED WESTERN SNOWY CLOVER BIRD.

THOUSANDS WILL BE ATTENDING THE AIR SHOW.>> I'M SURE THEIR FEATHERS ARE RUFFLED, BUT IT IS NO WORSE THAN A MOTORCYCLE DRIVING BY OR SPEED BOATS.

>> MAY BE IF THEY COULD JUST NOT FLY THAT FAR DOWN, OR THEY COULD HAVE AN ENDING POINT SO THEY ARE MAY BE STAYING CLOSER TO THIS SIDE OF HUNTINGTON.>> CALIFORNIA FISH AND WILDLIFE MANAGERS SAY THEY'VE TRIED FOR SEVERAL YEARS TO GET AIR SHOW TO ADJUST THE ROUTES AND HAVE PROGRESS, AND ARE HOPING TO IN THE FUTURE.

WE UNDERSTAND THE AIR SHOW IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT FOR THE ECONOMY, WE DO SUPPORT THAT, WE ARE JUST TRYING TO WORK WITH THE FAA AND THE CITY OF HUNTING TO GET AND AVOID ANY IMPACTS TO THE WETLANDS, ONE OF THE ONLY WETLANDS WE HAVE LEFT IN THE REGION.>> I HAVE ASKED THE AIR SHOW ABOUT A CHANGE IN ROUTES, AND HAVE NOT YET RECEIVED AN ANSWER.

>> I WISH I COULD BRING BETTER NEWS FOR THOSE WHO ARE TIRED OF THE HEAT, WE HAVE MORE OF IT ON TAP OVER THE COMING DAYS.

IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR JUST A SIGN OF SOME RELIEF, WE HAVE A SLIGHTLY DEEPER MARINE LAYER TOMORROW MORNING, THAT JUST MEANS FOR THOSE OF US WHO HAVE ENCOUNTERED SOME FOG OR THURSDAY MORNING, ESPECIALLY TOWARD THOSE HIGH ELEVATIONS OUTSIDE INTERSTATE 5, YOU ARE LIKELY TO ENCOUNTER THAT AGAIN TOMORROW MORNING, MAYBE MORE SPOTS WILL PICK UP ON THAT.

RAMONA HAS BEEN SETTING RECORD HIGHS, DAY IN AND DAY OUT THIS WEEK.

60 DEGREES THERE TONIGHT, 65 IN THE CITY, BORREGO SPRINGS, 71, OVERNIGHT.

HEAT ADVISORIES THAT HE EARNINGS ARE STILL IN PLACE.

WE KNOW THAT IT IS HOT, AND IT'S GOING TO STAY THAT WAY NOT JUST FOR THE UPCOMING HOURS, BUT CONTINUING DAY IN AND DAY OUT, FOR THE REST OF THE WEEKEND INTO THE WEEKEND.

I WISH I HAD BETTER NEWS.

75 FOR THE HIGH AS WE HEAD INTO TOMORROW'S FORECAST, RAMONA, 95 FOR YOU, BORREGO SPRINGS, 106 DEGREES, EL CAJON COMING AT 80 DEGREES, THIS IS WHY RECORDS WILL BE CHALLENGED, IT'S A VERY HOT START TO OCTOBER FOR US.

BY THE COAST, MORE COMFORT, 70s, CLIMBING INTO THE 80s BY THE TIME WE GET TO THE END OF THE WEEKEND HERE.

THERE IS A LOT OF WARMTH AROUND FOR US, INLAND COMMUNITIES HOLDING ONTO THE MID-90s THROUGH A CHUNK OF THE WEEKEND, NOT FEELING ALL THAT GREAT.

AS SOON AS WE GET INTO THE MOUNTAINS, WE WILL FIND NUMBERS IN THE 70s, JUST BARELY HOLDING ON, STILL PRETTY WARM FOR US, CONSIDERING THE TREND WE SHOULD FIND THIS TIME OF YEAR, DOESN'T COMMUNITIES, WELL INTO THE TRIPLE DIGITS, MOST SPOTS, MORE THAN 105 DEGREES FOR THAT AFTERNOON HI, CLOSER TO THAT 110 DEGREES RANGE.

WORK CREWS ARE BUILDING A STRUCTURE FOR A SIGN AS PART OF THE PAVEMENT AND BRIDGE REHABILITATION PROJECT.

>>> IT APPEARS PROGRESS IS BEING MADE IN A STRIKE INVOLVING 50,000 DOCKWORKERS ON THE EAST AND GULF COASTS.

THE UNION WILL RETURN TO WORK AFTER A TENTATIVE DEAL ON WAGES.

THE THREE DAY STRIKE HAD ALREADY CAUSED SOME ISSUES WITH THE NATIONAL SUPPLY CHAIN.

SO THERE'S CLEARLY A DEAL TO BE HAD.

THE TRANSPORTATION SECRETARY WEIGHING IN ON DAY THREE OF THEM PASSIVE PORT STRIKE.

OPERATIONS AT MAJOR SHIPPING TERMINALS ALONG THE EAST AND GULF COASTS ARE AT A STANDSTILL.

THE SECRETARY SAYS HE FEELS BOTH SIDES ARE NOT FAR APART ON KEY STICKING POINTS, LIKE PAY RAISES.>> IN INDUSTRY AFTER INDUSTRY, YOU'VE SEEN HISTORIC DEALS WITH WAGE INCREASES FOR WORKERS COMING ALONGSIDE CONTINUED BUSINESS SUCCESS.

SINGLE ONE OF THEIR HIT SONGS IS CALLED MONEY, NOW THE MEMBERS OF PINK FLOYD ARE ABOUT TO GET MORE OF IT, THAT CLASSIC ROCK BAND HAS A DEAL TO SELL THEIR MUSIC CATALOG TO SONY FOR $400 MILLION, WITH RIGHTS TO THE NAME AND LIKENESS.

SONY WOULD BE ABLE TO PROFIT FROM FUTURE MERCHANDISE AND MOVIE DEALS, BUT THERE ARE SOME RESTRICTIONS ON THE MUSIC.>>> DO YOU EVER HAVE ONE OF THOSE TIMES A SONG KEEPS REPEATING OVER AND OVER IN YOUR HEAD, AND YOU JUST CAN'T GET RID OF IT?

IF SO, YOU MIGHT HAVE SYMPATHY FOR ONE MAN IN SAN DIEGO'S HISTORY.

KEN CAME - - KEN KRAMER TELLS US WHY, IN THIS STORY ABOUT SAN DIEGO.

LET'S GO TO THE MARITIME MUSEUM OF SAN DIEGO, ALONG THE WATERFRONT.

WE WILL GO PAST A LOT OF PEOPLE AND EXHIBITS, TO THE UPPER DECK I'M AWARE THERE IS A PIANO, WHICH IS VERY HANDY, BECAUSE IT IS EXACTLY WHAT WE NEED TO TELL THIS STORY.

AND WE NEED SOMEBODY TO PLAY A SIMPLE LITTLE MELODY.

SOMEONE AT THE MUSEUM VOLUNTEERED.

RECOGNIZE THAT?

A SONG THAT GOES BACK TO 1858, WILDLY POPULAR, SAID TO BE A FAVORITE OF ABRAHAM LINCOLN.

IT IS CALLED LISTEN TO THE MOCKINGBIRD.

DO YOU KNOW IT?

MAYBE YOU REMEMBER IT FROM CARTOONS THAT CAME ALONG A CENTURY LATER, ALWAYS PLAYING US INTO THE MOCKINGBIRD.

OKAY, THAT'S LISTEN TO THE MOCKINGBIRD.

NOW I WANT TO SHOW YOU SOMETHING.

THIS IS THE ONLY KNOWN TEACHER OF A SAN DIEGO FERRY BOAT FROM THE 1880S, A CUTE LITTLE BOAT, VERY ADORABLE.>> IT WAS VERY ATTRACTIVE, ABOUT 60 FEET LONG, I WOULD GUESS IT COULD TAKE UPWARDS OF 20 OR 30 PASSENGERS ON A GOOD DAY.

>> KEVIN SHEEHAN IS ONE OF THE CURATORS WHO SHOWED US THE MODEL OF THE ROSEVILLE, WHICH USED TO FERRY PASSENGERS FROM THE BROADWAY PIER, ACROSS THE BAY, TO THE COMMUNITY OF ROSEVILLE ON POINT MULLEN, KNOWN FOR FOUNDER AND DEVELOPER, LEWIS ROSE.>> THE NAME WAS ON EVERYONE'S LIPS, ONE OF THE PLACES YOU WANTED TO GO, AND BE SEEN AT.>> WHEN YOU RODE THE LITTLE BOAT WITH THE SAME NAME, ROSEVILLE, IT WAS A FIRST-CLASS EXPERIENCE, LAMPS, DEEPLY UPHOLSTERED CHAIRS.

AND YOU SEE THIS MODEL?

THERE WAS A PIANO ON BOARD.>> THE FAMOUS ROSE BOWL PIANO, AS YOU ARE GOING OVER, YOU CAN HEAR THE LATEST TUNES BEING PLAYED BY THE PIANIST.>> VERY NICE, BACK ACROSS THE BAY WITH THE PIANO AND PIANO PLAYER.>> AT ONE THERE WAS ONE PIANIST WHO COULD BASICALLY ONLY PLAY ONE SONG, TO LISTEN TO A MOCKINGBIRD.

>> SO THAT'S ALL HE PLAYED, OVER, AND OVER, AND OVER AGAIN.

>> I SAY I WISH WE WERE OUT OF HERE.

THE ENGINEER, DOWN IN THE ENGINE ROOM, THAT'S ALL HE HEARD, DAY IN AND DAY OUT.

HE GAVE AN ULTIMATUM TO THE OWNERS OF THE BOAT, SAYING EITHER YOU FIND A NEW PIANIST, OR YOU FIND A NEW ENGINEER.>> YOU CAN IMAGINE WHAT HAPPENED.>> THE PIANIST WAS FIRED, THE ENGINEER CONTINUED, AND THE BOAT WENT SILENT.

SO THAT MIGHT BE WHERE THE STORY ENDS, THE BOAT LONG GONE AND MOSTLY FORGOTTEN, EXCEPT FOR ONE THING, THE ROSEVILLE PIANO, THE ONE ON WHICH LISTEN TO THE MOCKINGBIRD WAS PLAYED TO DISTRACTION, IT WAS SAVED AND DONATED, AND IS ON BOARD THE BERKELEY TODAY.

HERE'S HOPING YOU REMEMBER THE ROSEVILLE IN THIS STORY OF OLD SAN DIEGO.

IF YOU WANT TO SEE MORE OF KEN KRAMER'S STORIES ABOUT SAN DIEGO, HIS HALF-HOUR SHOW CAN BE SEEN TONIGHT, AND EVERY THURSDAY NIGHT, RIGHT HERE ON KPBS.

AND HERE'S A LOOK AT WHAT WE ARE WORKING ON.
