Today we walked for about 2 1/2 hours around a waterfront park next to the race track near Berkeley. I walked With my 9 year old & 4 year old friends. The park is called Albany Bulb because of its lightbulb shape. It is almost an island & was brought about by the City of San Francisco dumping its industrial waste. When that stopped, nature began to grow over the concrete & wire. Soon thereafter the artists came & the 'island' or, bulb, is full of art created incorporating the industrial waste everywhere. It is an incredible testatment to the survival of art amongst the rubble, and was a long inspiring walk for the three of us. I'll bet those kids sleep well tonight.
