Hey everybody… I’m back from an unexpected hiatus. Did you miss me?
I thought I could get to some quick posts this past week, but was quickly deluged by streams of cardboard, packing tape, and mountains of goods destined for other homes. It was a crazy week, but the house is coming together, our garage sale was moderately successful, and though I feel as though I’ve been run over by a freight train, I’m now somewhat back in the swing of things.
Hoping to finish up my bookstore series in the near future, but in the meantime, here’s a little something else…
Great historical information in this video, thanks to the Oakland Heritage Alliance:
Mural designed by Rocky Rische-Baird
Mural painted by Rocky & Erica Rische-Baird (2008)
Interesting comparison to the much more political Key System mural Rocky did on Piedmont Avenue.
You’re so right. I’ll have to go get that one next!
