Vanessi’s was located in North Beach, at Broadway and Kearny. The restaurant closed in 1997. The gas station, also located in North Beach, was a little bit different than the usual corporate-designed station, even in the 1970’s-when these photos were taken.
*Both photos scanned from 35mm print film, over 40 years old.
Two images of the last rose from our rose bush this season. Since I posted these two images on Facebook I thought I should go ahead and post them on the blog as well. I have always had trouble with red roses, but I think this time I finally got something worth saving.
This open space, adjacent to Alberta Street, which is highly commercial, seemed kind of odd to me. I mostly like the clouds, I think. The Vespa obsession continues :-).
