Travels of THB: Sherwin-Williams Development and lots of Twin pics

First Day of Kindergarten

Cecily

Jasmine (yes, those are mismattched socks)

THB and DB have lost a lot of E-ville restaurants

Particularly pizza spots. Well, a new one, Psassione Emporio, had opened just before Covid, owned by the same folks that use to own Hot Italian in the Emeery Bay Market, and still make gelato. Highly reco'd

Pizza and a peach salad both excellent, easy parking on 5th near Dwight in Berkeley, and a pint to-go after dinner

Sherwin-Williams update

Public Art Front

Back: maybe it lights up at night?

yes, it does light up! Note these two pics are not the same, taken a few seconds apart

And now at twilight, art by Jim Campbell, he of the top of the Sales Force building

Cookie Cutter Art, apparently this is supposed to be a "thought bubble" by Hank Willis Thomas

Exercising along parkway

a week or two later: a large orange "love bench" by Jeppe Hein is installed

Hammocks for residents

Side-by-Side Dog Parks: first dog there gets to pick a side

this became the small dog park sidee - this dog is practically lost in the tall (real) grass

there are low spots in each dog park, landscaping or watering or both will need to be adjusted

you get a sense of how massive this car garage is and it is for the thousands of bio-tech workers expected, not for local residents

One short side of the garage is getting "scrimmed" and THB thinks eventually the entire buidling will be ensheathed

you can see the low spots turning muddy

And the apartment on the right (not open yet) is the largest of the S-W newbies

This lampost gets its own strip of grss!

The Emery city park is nearing completion!

More improvements:

Bob: An’ here I sit so patiently; Waiting to find out what price;

You have to pay to get out of; Going through all these things twice

lots of rework happening!

END EVA over time

the hole for the french fries sculpture

only half the dog park is closed, they other side is still open

And then, only a few days later: everything is back together

Sandy and twins: Sandy recovering from a foxtal in rght front paw

Sandy, off-leash, is somewhere in the mist of Carmel beach

Twins relaxing after a day at Roughing It camp

with the marine layer solidly in place during the summer this is an unusual experience: sunseet

The Twins and Auntie at th Discovery Museum in Sausalito

Scarf tge Anglerfish has requested the appropriate gender idententification?

Post-game at Pizzahacker, J makes it all the way to bottom of her cone, C swaps her cone for a cup doesn't finish her portion and Auntie and THB help her out while DB finishes the cone

The Twins testdriving the new exercise equipment next to S-W

twins left their strollers behind

Twins take a break from exercising to do some trainspotting

back to testing the equipment

The Twins and grandparents at Tera Farms near San Juan Batista; the ownerof the farm, Sheena V, has set up a non-profit to help local women organic farmers distribute their produce direct to consumers, DB and THB donate in support
