A peaceful alley on Trash Day in South Park, San Diego. I like Trash Day, well I like it every two weeks when they collect recycling, because I think the blue recycling bins are pretty.

Swensen’s Ice Cream in Russian Hill. for sale

Like every sane person, I love San Francisco and its many charms. On my latest trip I decided to just go ahead and indulge my nerdy aspect and explore Russian Hill, where so much of the Tales of the City novels took place.

A Google Maps search did not return a Barbary Lane, but I was glad to see the Searchlight Market and Swensen’s Ice Cream- pictured here- both of which were featured in the books.

Swensen’s showed up in Mary Ann in Autumn, which I highly recommend. I did not get any ice cream, which I now regret.

Market St in San Diego, at the bus stop to points uptown. I live around here.

I started this painting and then went back after probably a couple of weeks and the big green apartment building had suffered a fire in one of the upstairs units. The scorched part wasn’t visible from this vantage point, but it was a weird feeling.
