It is 7 a.m, 59° and headed to 74°. Details for today and the next ten days are here.

I began these at 6:45 a.m. and finished in about 30 minutes. It was quite dark when I went out and not until I finished did the sun start to come out.

Today’s block: 22nd  to 23rd, Alabama to Florida.  When the sunlight came up I took a couple of more on 22nd. It was very quiet.

Details on how to participate in the project to document the Mission waking up are here. You can see all of the photo essays here.

I have lived in San Francisco since 1961 when my Dad moved us for his new employment from Stockton, CA. It was great growing up in the City back then. We lived in Eureka Valley and when I became an adult I moved over the hill to Noe Valley. In 1982 we looked to buy property and settled in the Mission. We bought a pair of flats with friends & we both raised our families here. Our adult children have moved on. We remain and continue to watch the neighborhood change.
