Great to meet you at the OHA 12 Street walk, Theresa. My coverage of the Temescal fair is on Our Oaklandn and Oakland Local. Mostly photos, as I was parking bikes with the East Bay Bicycle Coalition for much of the afternoon.

It deserves comment that a week before the the annual street fair O.P.D. came through the area around 40th and Telegraph en masse. They apparently encouraged certain individuals to leave an area, and so far, those persons have not returned. No one hanging around the bus stops with shopping carts hiding 2×4′s hidden under a dirty blanket. No groups young adult males standing between Subway and the carry-out exchanging hard looks with other young adults walking past. An that woman who sits at the bus stop staring at the Ethiopian restaurant across the street, hour after hour, as though she was watching and waiting for someone to enter or leave the restaurant, is sadly no where to be seen.

The tourists, wearing Bermuda shorts, straw hats and cameras hanging about their necks walking from MacArthur Bart to the fair were a real treat to watch.
