Labor Day find: cast-off work boots in the Financial.

Hill repair continues

Since the hill fell behind me last February 27, repair has been going on sporadically. Location: Vallejo Street top of the hill between Kearny and Montgomery.

Look Up

Sunday in the early morning, rushing to get to work, but phenomenal sight of clouds decorating the heavens stops my heart. Old Hobart building, new buildings and a city type tree framed the sky. Location: Market and Montgomery

Pork Me

The ubiquitous pork strikes again.

UPDATE: This sign has since vanished. I assume it is being replaced.

Location: Market at Montgomery

Sneakers

There are a lot of abandoned shoes lying around San Francisco. They are almost invariably in pairs. I always wonder who's they are and why they are there. Did someone just get tired of them and leave them out for a homeless person. Sometimes they are really nice shoes that I am tempted to take, but I don't really need them.

These Converse High Tops were not some of the really nice ones, they were very thoroughly worn. They fit right in on Broadway, home of the semi-seedy, to very seedy strip clubs. It is funny how the callers at the doors always try to get me to go in. I never do, but they keep trying. I wonder if there is something about me that says I want to go to a strip club.

I don't know what that would be.

Location: Montgomery and Broadway in front of the Head Shop

SF Seen - Introduction

So I see a lot of weird stuff on the sidewalks in San Francisco. I thought I would lead with this little guy as he reminds me of home time of year.

I am from upstate New York so in the fall there are a lot of dead animals around. They just start biting it as the cold sets in.

I also thought this was a good picture and a decent example of the subject matter you can expect from me.

The other posters will be starting up soon and their content will be unique to them.

Location: North of Broadway on Montgomery
