Here is a picture to show you....it's quite a place.

Yup...that place is crazy with colors. I shot a band there for the Chronicle and the colors pop like mad.

I heard it's in kind of a rough neighborhood. Some photog on here was saying either thier car or their model's car was broken into there.

Yeah....pretty much. I wouldn't exactly park anywhere but right in front of the place on the street.

I keep meaning to visit the place. It's a geocaching site, but when I was there, it was closed. Whenever I think about going there, it's closed. :-)

Check out farther down the street on the left. One of the Art Car Parade 'cars' is in a fenced yard on the corner.

I guess I should hit it again also for GCing. Need to get off my rump and up my finds.

LOL... I know the feeling. I haven't been out GC'ing in a couple of weeks...starting to feel a bit of withdrawal...

With The Orange Show, it's a virtual. You don't have to go in to figure it out. Just read the writing on the wall. :-)
