  • Tuesday, April 22

    I felt pretty good this morning and headed off Corbet to Portola to Woodside to Dewey to Taravel and down to the coast.  I came up the Great Highway and then got on Geary to 34th and up the Palace of the Legion of Honor.  I came down Camino Del Mar to Lake to Arguello to Clay to Divisadero to Jackson.  I love this crumbling hose across from Alta Plaza on Jackson.  I wouldn't want to be anywhere near that facade in an earthquake, but the flowers look nice:

    This is me with Jackson Street behind me:

    I continued on Jackson Street where I photographed another crumbling facade.  I've taken pics of this one before.  It's so fabulous.  I hope the decay is only superficial because I'd hate to see a house like this go:

    Check out the glamorous, elegant detail:

    I continued on Jackson to Franklin to Pacific to Powell.  This pretty park is on Powell at John:

    This is the view of Powell from John Street:

    This is the view down Jackson of Chinatown into the Financial District with the fabulous Bay Bridge in the background:

    I got on Jackson and stopped at Grant to take a pic looking East:

    And also West:

    I continued on Jackson to Montgomery to Clay to Sansome and into work.
