Subway Sunset
A clear afternoon and saturated colors do a lot to add a little charm to our rundown subway platform. (And now you where to stalk me when I’m commuting!)
Donuts by All Star
In both Los Angeles and San Francisco, I saw a lot of well-preserved examples of kicky old signage. I think this is my favorite so far.
It’s Tops
A surprisingly well-preserved, irony-free coffee shop out of a time warp on Market Street. Fantastic pancakes.
MUNI in Motion
Things to see when you’re waiting for the cable car to haul your sleepy ass up that damned hill.
Nob Hill at Night
Just an assortment of what those fancy schmancy buildings look like at night.
Foggy Night on Nob Hill
The thick fog that rolls into San Francisco every night is no urban legend. You can see it rolling over the hills like mustard gas. It’s particularly striking at the top of those steep hills scattered around the city.
Pen Vendorama
Perhaps the quirkiest vending machine I’ve seen, found alongside a bunch of standard candy machines at Galco’s Soda Pop Stop in L.A. I have no idea whether that petent has ever been granted.
The Oval Office
I could make a snarky post about the Commander-in-Chief’s frequent vacations to Texas, but in the interest of accuracy I’ll confess that this is the mothballed office of Jed Bartlett, not George W. Bush.
TV Houses
Famous set houses on the Warner Brothers lots. Can you identify them without checking here?
