Today in my Neighborhood

I've traveled far from home to see the sights and capture some of that in photographs.

Today, I challenged myself to walk only within 5 blocks of home and see with new eyes things that I'd seen hundreds of times or perhaps not at all.  Here are some of those things I saw today; October 25, 2010

The condos across Fremont Park from me on P Street have been newly painted.  They are colorful and add spice to the neighborhood. It reminds me somewhat of Burano, Italy.

I was also looking for signs of fall on this wonderful fall-like day in Sacramento.

Pretty, but not fall
