As in any city, you can find things that make for interesting photographs, and obviously some areas are better than others, but overall, I don't think most of the city is particularly striking.

Oakland never looked as interesting to me in real life as it does in your photos. Maybe I'll see it again sometime soon and it will look different... Good ones.

The shoe repair place is on Fruitvale between E 14th and E 15th, north side of the street. It's next door to Mi Grullense (the storefront restaurant, not the taco truck), or maybe two doors down. If they're true to their word, or rather their image, then they'll have your boots gleaming by the time they're done with them. I'll bet it wouldn't cost you too much, either. jabel: Somehow I knew you'd be brimming over with good ideas. Gene: Thanks.
