Red Friday
Your Boulevardier was up early on Friday morning for a yoga class, and later in the day walked the City of Lite. Things were generally quiet on both occasions, perhaps to the displeasure of retailers. There was no waiting to see Santa in Castro Village at around 1:00 p.m., but the line for coffee at Peet's practically stretched out the door.
Although the Man in Red was under-occupied, the Trees in Red -- these spotted in the parking lot behind Round Table Pizza on Redwood Road -- were busy working their magic.
An hour or two later in the day, a pocket storm blew through bringing high winds, torrential rain, and thunder, all followed by a double rainbow. Quite the weather episode.

Great to see the trees. Sad to hear about the Man in Red.
One would hope that the twinkle hasn't left the children in the City of Lite.
I know a few pre-teens were still discussing reindeer-deliveries as I overheard some shop talk at Safeway.
Mr. Singer! Long time no hear from. I hope all's well with you. F.S.
That's a beautiful photo of the trees. I have been admiring the trees that are changing colors also.
I also enjoyed the small storm we received on Friday.
Love, love, love the tree! Thank you for the picture.
Over the weekend we saw Santa riding in a Alameda County fire truck, escorted by two police cars with their roof lights flashing. He was waving to the folks on the sidewalk, and must have been on his way to the Village.
