Looking down 22nd St Photo by Kathleen Narruhn

Good Morning Mission! It’s 9:30 a.m. and 45˚ and expected to rise to 53˚. Details for the next ten days here.

Today’s blocks: Alabama and Florida between 21st and 22 Streets.

It was quite cold this morning, so I wore my fingerless gloves to take photos. Over the time I photo a block I see so many things I wouldn’t if I was driving. I’ve seen and learned more about my neighborhood after living in the Mission almost 28 years. I’ve watched it changed and it hasn’t stopped. It has become very busy with more cars, bicyclist, dogs and more people. I’ve photographed a good portion of the blocks around my home see each block with new eyes.

With the light good early on, so much the better to sign on to document your block. Don’t wait! Let us know what day and block you would like at info@missionlocal.com.

You can see a map of all of the blocks here.  The blocks in grey are being saved for others who have signed up. Let us save a block for you as well.

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.
