🌟 Space, Speed Cameras, and Sandwiches

Welcome to your weekly San Fernando Valley update: March 26–April 1, 2026.

It’s my birthday and I’m out of the office!

There isn’t a full NoHo Nick newsletter this week. I’ll be back on April 2.

Don’t sweat it, though. There’s still plenty going on in the Valley.
