Sunny weather greets blues fans

SUMMERTIME FEELING- Blues rockers Jimmy Z and the Z Tribe, at left, perform at the third annual Write4Hope Blues Festival in Simi Valley's Oak Park on Saturday. Scores of residents, including Victor Macias and his daughter Annabella, 2, at left, braved the day's unusually high temps to enjoy the festival, which is sponsored in part by the Kiwanis Club of Simi Valley. Proceeds will benefit local charities including the Samaritan Center and the free clinic. Photos by Iris Smoot
