Strawberries asre ripe

Our story on this year's strawberry crop is ripe ... just like the berries. We've had the story ready to go for a couple of days, but held it while we pursued the shooting spree in the county. It looks like we'll pop the strawberry story tomorrow for Page One. It will show how we got from $25 million in crop damage in January to a record harvest by June ... all from the same storms.

Also tomorrow, we're going along with the National Park Service as rangers release more bald eagle chicks on Santa Cruz Island in the continuing effort to take the part back to its native habitat.

We're continuing to report the shooting spree. Depending on who we talk to and what we find, the story could easily again be on Page One.

It's a light day on the wires, with the suicide bombings in Iraq (34 killed in three attacks) the only story that looks to make it out front at this point.
