Serving OB, the Peninsula and San Diego Beaches
For the next few days, the OB Rag will be “under construction” as our tech desk, staffed by Patty Jones, works out a new theme for the website as wordpress is discontinuing the one we’ve had for the last 15 years.
Thanks for your patience. You can always reach the staff at our email: obragblog@gmail.com

This will pretty much be what the future Rag looks like, except for the colors and the masthead.
Dear readers: if you see anything that appears to be a glitch in the appearance of our new “look”, leave a comment por favor.
Too many posts are being added to the sidebar’s “Recent OB and PL News” for some reason that have nothing to do with OB or PL.
Looks great on my PC- Windows 11, Firefox. And great on my phone too, DuckDuckGo browser.
Looks great Patty. Nice work.
Thanks! As always, a work in progress.
