An alley in downtown Escondido, which contains numerous amazing murals created for the Esco Alley Art project, is also home to several alleys cats. And mice.
They’ve been painted on two dumpsters!
Strangely, one alley cat appears to be a barber. Another appears to be an artist.
Check out photos I took of this fun Alley Art!

Tom Sawyer tricked several people at TwainFest today.
I was walking nonchalantly though Heritage Park near Old Town San Diego when Tom Sawyer passed by in a big hurry…

A prehistoric, Late Jurassic period Archaeopteryx is often seen lurking near the entrance of the Buena Vista Audubon Nature Center!
The flightless, carnivorous, bird-like dinosaur apparently has arrived from 150 million years ago and found a home in Oceanside!
This particular specimen appears very shiny. That’s probably because it’s actually a cool metal sculpture, created in 2021 by local artist Dr. Paul Weber!

A chicken with a brown belt in karate is pitted against flaming hot devils in this crazy City Heights mural!
The mural, which I believe was painted in 2020, can be found on the side of FireBirds Chicken at 4155 University Avenue. The restaurant opened in late 2019. The mural is part of City Heights’ growing collection of awesome street art tagged #TheAvenueMuralProject.
From what I’ve read, FireBirds chicken is the first Nashville hot chicken restaurant in San Diego. It is operated by two brothers who are UC San Diego alumni.
I know I like Louisiana fried chicken, so I guess I better head inside one day and give it a try!

A pack of hungry dogs on a North Park sidewalk have been observed eating tacos!
The multi-colored, taco-eating dogs always gather at the front door of City Tacos. Because that’s where the yummy tacos originate.
One notorious dog, believed to be the leader of the pack, wears a top hat!
The following photographs were taken at the entrance of City Tacos. They show pooch pandemonium!

I took these few odd photographs in the Gaslamp Quarter last Sunday. They had absolutely nothing to do with Mother’s Day. But they were too good to toss into the Recycle Bin.
I’m not sure what theme might connect these photos, except for general quirkiness. (Is that a word?)
I apologize if the Newsbreak or Opera News App is showing this silly little blog post and you’re expecting hard hitting news. I have yet to cover any crimes or political scandals. None that I can recall.
I’m just a guy who walks around San Diego photographing various things I see. It’s all mostly for fun.
Enjoy a laugh!

For your enjoyment, I’ve assembled a bunch of fun Star Wars photos that I’ve taken over many years of blogging in San Diego.

Look at the characters I spotted during a recent walk through City Heights. El Chavo and La Chilindrina!
The two were hanging out early in the morning near the corner of University Avenue and 37th Street!
Many murals have been painted along this corridor of City Heights–which has become a very colorful outdoor art gallery–but these two I hadn’t seen previously. It appears they were another fun project of Love City Heights and #theavenuemuralproject!

I have all sorts of random images saved on my computer from various walks in the past month or so. The photos I’m posting now were taken in San Ysidro, a little north of the Mexican border.
I discovered these colorful bits of street art as I wandered about.
Enjoy!
