USED

Recognize this spot at the northern end of downtown Hollister? Anyone recall what used to be here? And, what was used? I wonder if this lot will ever be home to anything again.

Hey, Taxi!

We were waiting for our order at the Burger Factory when the husband asked, "How are we going to get around when we can no longer drive?"

"We can walk. Ride our bicycles," I answered. "Take the bus. Take a taxi."

"Hollister doesn't have taxis," he said.

"Now there are," I said.

"Maybe one or two," he said, as we stood up to get our order of teriyaki chicken, egg rolls, and Philly Cheesesteak.

Lo and behold, the next day, we saw a taxi.

Blue Skies

When I moved back to Hollister several years ago, I didn't realize how much I missed the open skies. This specific view is just a few miles south of downtown Hollister, off of Highway 25.

More of Chasing Clouds

You're looking northeast from the corner of Best Road and Airline Highway (aka Highway 25). I wonder where those clouds were coming from? They looked to be moving southeasterly. This was taken on the day I went chasing clouds.

Chasing Clouds

Tuesday afternoon, after voting, I spied the tippy-top of what looked like growing thunderheads over the Rancho San Justo Gym. Very strange since it was a clear day. Of course I needed a photo of them. The clouds weren't as nearby as I thought they were. The further we drove up Airline (Highway 25), the farther away they were. Here's a close-up of them from Best Road.
