Berkeley Trip

We took a trip to Berkeley to see an art show about Ant Farm. Toget there, we walked to BART and saw some of the stranger Concrete Gardens of San Francisco.

In other places, people mow their front yards. In San Francisco, many people sweep their front yards, if they have a front yard. This is an example of a concrete garden. San Francisco has many concrete gardens.	Sometimes, someone will put a potted plant in the concrete garden.	Sometimes they just paint.	I think this is part of the dual water system for fires. San Francisco has a history with fire (remember 1906?) so there are redundant water systems.	I can appreciate this kind of billboard modification. This was inside the BART station as we arrived in Berkeley. We went to an exhibit of things produced by the Ant Farm.
This is a stairway which I would like to explore at some point.
