Carol and I walked about eight miles this evening in San Mateo and Burlingame. We both stopped to look at these two vignettes; Carol took the photos with her cell phone.

An anecdote
Every Monday night, I sing with a group of people over in Berkeley. We always take a break halfway through the evening, and tonight two of the singers told us how they got held up at gunpoint in front of their house, at 5 in the afternoon, in a good neighborhood in Oakland. They were unharmed, but both of them were quite shaken by the experience. They said that the police told them that the continuing recession has made crime worse.
Update 1/30/26: …sadly, David died about 5 years ago, and Susan 2 years ago. Two fine musicians and fine human beings, both of whom I miss.
