Monday was ‘Walk to Work’ Monday. I headed out with Mr. Poe and then dropped him off at Muni and headed off for Duboce Park. It was a wet morning and there weren’t a lot of people about:
Then I headed over to pretty Koshland Park which has a lovely view of Civic Center from between the trees:
Then I headed over to Patricia’s Green which is what they’ve named the greenspace on Octavia between Fell and Hayes. It looks better every time I go. Fabulous:
I love the Raudenbush’s 2010 Burning Man piece called ‘Future’s Past’:
Hayes Valley is also getting some pretty fantastic murals:
You can see 100 Van Ness in the background. It’s being repurposed into an updated structure that’s gonna look FABULOUS:
This is Keith Sklar’s 1989 ‘Learning Wall’ at Franklin and Hayes. Faded or fabulous? You be the judge:
I walked around Civic Center and got a bunch of pics of the beautiful buildings. San Francisco just gets better and better:
I headed over to Mission Street which is pretty gritty in the morning. Luckily, I walk fast. This recent mural is on Mission between 8th and 7th and I’m almost positive it’s on the site of a building that burned down a couple of years ago. They had a lot of trouble putting the fire out and their was foam all over Mission Street:
The fantastic federal building:
This recent mural is on Natoma at 6th:
I headed over to the Whole Foods on 4th and Harrison and got some donuts and greedily devoured them as I walked through Yerba Buena. This is the view up Yerba Buena Lane from Mission:
I headed over to Grant and got a pic of the Chinatown gate:
I headed into the office. I went home for lunch and didn’t notice that I’d left my house keys at work until I was already on Douglass. Fuck! I headed back and got them and went home to let the dogs out. I don’t know what was up with me in the afternoon because I cleaned out my desk for change and ate junk food all afternoon. After work I went to my spin class which was awesome and then I went home for dinner. After, I got cleaned up and went to bed.
