Tuesday I came into work Market to Laguna to Grove to Polk to Post to Kearny to Bush to Sansome. I headed home for lunch and noted the enormous protest going on at the company that I work for. The stockholders meeting was today and there was a huge turnout to protest something or other. It doesn’t make any sense to me at all. It seems to me that if all of the occupy people spent their energy getting people elected to public office instead of these ridiculous protests than we could see some get some real change but these ridiculously unfocused protests don’t have a clear message and aren’t gonna lead anywhere. I hate to sound so negative on them but it seems like the conservative agenda has basically been hijacked by the tea party because they’re organized and getting people elected. Why can’t the occupy people behave like that?? Here’s a couple of photos of useless:
After work I headed off 2nd to Townsend to Kansas to 17th to Potrero to 23rd to Valencia to Mission to St Mary’s and stopped for some pics of St John the Evangelist’s. Which seems oddly named since it’s on St. Mary’s street but St Mary’s was a college that used to be in the area and it moved to Moraga in 1890. The former site became the St. Mary’s Park neighborhood and this church was built on the St Mary’s parish grounds. I love the iron work on the rectory door:
Some pics of the pretty church. I’ve never been inside, but I love the exterior especially the towers:
Me:
I took Marsilly to Bosworth to Lyell to Alemeny to Brotherhood Way to Lake Merced to Higuera to Arballo to Font to Holloway to Junipero Serra to Mercedes to Cerritos where I got a few pics. I love the purple flowers that are all over these hills:
I continued on Cerritos to Ocean to Aptos to Darien to San Benito to San Anselmo to Santa Clara to Portola to Corbett to Ord and home for dinner. Mr. Poe is working late tonight so I’m stuck feeding myself and the dogs.
