Diego Rivera's Pan American Unity mural.

It's a fresco (painting on wet plaster) that's 74 feet long by 22 feet high and weighing 60,000 pounds. Rivera created it at San Francisco's Treasure Island during the 1940 Golden Gate International Exposition.

They asked us if we could spare a beer. Alas, we had none. They had ridden several hundred miles and had at least that far yet to go.

Watsonville, California farmland. It's where a lot of the country's strawberries come from.

Eric .. I really enjoy seeing the local neighbourhood views you capture of San Francisco. The housing and colours, hills, and the fog, et al.
I see so many resemblances to areas within - the small and old city of - St John's, Newfoundland/Labrador. Areas within the latter present some very similar views. And the city is well-known for its colourful houses, hills, and fog!!
Thanks for sharing ….
Cheers!
