Sunday In The City.

I was messing about today with my pal Joni, which included a most excellent visit to San Francisco Taquería - what trip to the Mission would be complete without it? I snapped some shots of the Mission at its finest while there. Nothing much ever changes there, and I love that I can trust to find it just the way I last left it. Here's a peek at some of its gritty goodness.


Beauty in the Eye of the Beholder.


F is for Frock.


Us Loves Pastry.


Fancy Panties.


Gone and a Bit Forgotten.


Circa 1950's.


Fountain of the Youth.


Quality Craftiness.


Pops & Cyclops.

I love these pics. Quiniscential (spelling?) SF. I miss it so much, thank you for transporting me. I love how you can see the beauty in all things even graffiti.

Do you ever go to Chinatown? There would be some interesting pics.

~thanks so much Jinky

I don't comment too much but am an avid reader of your blog. Love the Fancy Panties photo - actully I live in the lower flat of that green fronted house in Bernal. I just walked out front to see if that was us and in deed it is.
