Rec & Park Finally Shamed Into Repaving the Panhandle’s Southern Trail – Hundreds of Further Pedestrian/Jogger Injuries Averted
Friday, July 7th, 2017This is the newly-paved pedestrian (meaning no bikes / skateboards allowed) path along Oak in the Golden Gate Park Panhandle (or as RPD now refers to it, Panhandle Park, but of course the Oklahoma Panhandle is still a part of Oklahoma, right?)
I’d see people, mostly joggers, falling down on this formerly bumpy path all the time, but RPD didn’t care ’cause it had/has some plan for “irrigation,” whatever that means.
Of course, they can always dig this up whenever they get to their irrigation issue, you know, in a decade or two.
Here it is, enjoy:

Parks & Wrecked: Arson Fire Burns Large Playground Structure at Koret in GGP – Photos
Sunday, June 25th, 2017[UPDATE: Oh, per Andy Bosselman of Hoodline, the arson occurred early this morning.]
Here’s the news, via Peter Chu:

Vandals strike playground in SF’s Golden Gate Park By Evan Sernoffsky
So now the largest play structure at five-star Yelp-rated Koret Children’s Quarter(s) in Golden Gate Park is shut down. And the part that is burned, with the slides and roofs, is connected to the climbing pole / pyramid you can see here on the right, and they’re connected to a few other things as well. All roped off:
So that’s it for the bigger kids play area at Koret now, and for a long time it looks like.
Look at the black burned out area underneath. Guzzoline? IDK. There used to be an enclosed slide on the left here – it’s all gone now.
I’m thinking this is a teardown. I’m thinking this will take months to fix.
Anyway, here are a few shots, showing the melted meltiness, some porno for pyros:
LEAVES OF TWEE, LET IT BE: Artisanal POISON OAK Sign, Only In Marin
Monday, June 19th, 2017Generally speaking, Gentle Reader, if you find anything cryptic on this site, you can always highlight and then right click* for a quick Googling for your answer. But in this case, the Criminal Minds soundtrack is the first hit, for some odd reason. Anyway, here’s your answer. Yes, poison oak is all over Marin County.
Camera left – so green, so shiny, huh?
*Sorry Mac users, Steve Jobs, in His wisdom, banned right clicking, for aesthetic reasons. IDK / I forget how you’d one click Google on a Mac.
Rec and Parking: BMW’s Roundel is Practically a Parking Pass for RPD, an Organization Disconnected from La Raza
Wednesday, June 14th, 2017Just saying.
BMW roundels, which DO NOT represent spinning propeller blades, apparently, are not the problem, but they are one symptom of the problem.
The problem is that RPD is clubby and conservative, a bastion for those who decidedly are not like the people of Frisco.
