The Centuries old Rumble:
Today is the 100th anniversay of the 1906 San Francisco Earthquake, still one of the worst natural disasters in United States History. This fire hydrant was one of the few that survived the quake. It’s water put out raging fires throught the Mission District. Every year on April 18th, it gets a fresh coat of gold paint.
Media coverage rains ubiquitous so take your pick.
Since I moved here almost 6 years ago, I’ve been asking myself “Am I ready?” and, really the answer is no. Which is why in the coming weeks, I’m going to spend some time, and money, on these.
