Apostrophe Wrench
Your Boulevardier hsa walked past it several hundred times, but only recently noticed the very nice hand-painted sign for Sal's Foreign Auto Service on Castro Valley Boulevard.
Note the clever use of a wrench for the apostrophe.
The office for Sal's is in the Quonset hut that was formerly the Bubble Palace coin laundry, if memory serves. (Frère de Boulevardier played for the Bubble Palace Little League team many decades ago.) Sal's service bays are around the corner.

Is that sign new? I totally don't remember it. When I get back home, I'll have to check it out.
Shannon how do you jet to Oklahoma City and still have energy to read blogs the same day? You are Wonder Woman.
Nice sign. I have a thing for quonset huts. I have no idea why, I've never been in one that I know of. I'd like to have one. Of course I'd like to drive a fire truck too and I don't think that's going to happen.
