Tershia d' Elgin, who has been instrumental
in the development of the 32nd Street Canyon,
just gave me about 30 minutes of her precious time.

I am in the middle of preparing for a trip to Baltimore
and Washington D.C. for the Organic Summit; at the same time,
my energies are being pulled by the need to address
a massive overgrowth on our land bordering
what I am calling the Arosa Street Canyon.


This is causing a lot of pressure.

I am gong to meticulously record the progress we are making
on the overgrowth; and at the same time, I have a massive amount
of details regarding the trip.

Tershia was a balm to my soul,
sharing her own experience with working with the Fire Department
and other agencies.

She has a really beautiful website,
and is a professional writer who takes on a lot of meaningful work.

Tershia has a dream to see land owned by her family converted
to organic. This is a very timely issue facing America.

During college many years ago,
I had the great honor of helping an environmentalist
who had a deep love for the Santa Susana Mountains near Chatsworth.
Tershia reminded me of her.

I was a writer for the San Fernando Sun newspaper
at the time and did some writing for the project.
The writing helped a portion of the land get registered
as a National Monument, and then later the park turned
into the Santa Susana Mountain State Park.

I am glad I have that experience
as I take on--when time permits--the possibility
that on the land where I live now--
very much overgrown--future generations of nearby
San Diego State University Students
and our community of San Diego
can look back at a moment in history
when the Fire Prevention Bureau, City of San Diego,
and local community bordering our private canyon
came together to make decisions
that addressed the concerns and needs of our time.

This is about the Canyonlands Friends Groups,
and mentions Tershia d' Elgin
and the 32nd Street Canyonland project


The Friends of 32nd Street Canyon, for example, succeeded in persuading the San Diego Unified School District to back away from building an elementary school and playing field in the canyon, a campaign that took months of persistent lobbying and letter-writing and negotiating. The group also was able to secure nearly a half-million dollars in grant money, much of which will be used to restore a streambed that runs the length of the 12-acre canyon.

“From our perspective in Golden Hill, I think it's wonderful Eric has a group through which he can disseminate information about canyons that will be important to anyone who cares about canyons in San Diego,” said Tershia d'Elgin, one of the 32nd Street Canyon's leaders.
