  • I left work a little early and headed off 2nd to Howard to 11th to Bryant to Precita to Mission to College and into St. Mary's Park.  It's such a pretty neighborhood but not in the greatest area:

    I continued on College to Justin where I got a "hey" from a smoking latino.  I went into St. Mary's Park and noted that they'd completed construction on a fabulous playground there.  Gorgeous!

    I headed across the footbridge to Cambridge to Bacon to University.  This is farmhouse that now is the center of a water reservoir today:

    I continued on University to Woolse.  This is the remains of some greenhouses at Bowdoin:

    Me:

    I continued on Woolsey to San Bruno to 3rd into Bayshore to Guadalupe Canyon into E Market to San Pedro to Washington to 87th to South Park Plaza to John Daly to Lake Merced to John Muir to Skyline to the Great Highway.  The beach looked gorgeous:

    I continued on the Great Highway to Sloat.  This is the last remnant of the Doggie Diner which no longer stands:

    I continued on Sloat.  I narrowly avoided an accident at 19th.  The red car blew through a red light and plowed into the black car, evidently to avoid me.  We were all at the light and when the light turned green we all started moving.  I got about 10 feet into the intersection and I heard honking and squealing behind me so I started moving faster.  Then I heard crashing so I moved faster still.  When I got to the other side of the intersection I stopped for a pic of the carnage.  The red car is the one who blew through the light.  I don't even know what my takeaway is for this.  It was just so random:

    I got on St Francis to Santa Clara to San Lorenzo to Portola to Corbett to Ord and home for dinner.  Mr. Poe's at a movie so I'm on my own tonight.  Let's not tell Mr. Poe about the above photo.
