I grew up on the 'Spice Island', the island of Grenada located in the West Indies in the Caribbean Sea. My childhood years on the island forever was the best childhood a kid could hope for with an excellent education. I have dreams of retiring to Grenada someday but not on the near horizon. For now I live in the San Francisco Bay area and am blessed with a wonderful job as an Aircraft Maintenance Technician with Southwest Airlines in Oakland, Ca. I have been in the Aviation business since I was 18 years old initiated in the field by The United States Navy which I joined at age 17. I also do IT work, computer networking, security cameras for home or office and have set up smart homes. I love photography, drone flying and photography with my drone. I love my dogs more than anything and overall I just enjoy learning new things.
I like the sculpture and the linked story behind the artist’s activism for the homeless and the history of Albany Bulb.
Thanks for including the map – I lived in the south bay and had never heard of Albany Bulb. As I zoomed out I saw that there is a Buchanan dog park there as well…. it’s funny how much of our neighborhoods we explore thanks to our pooches.
Thanks for your comment Eileen. I found the Albany bulb at the recommendation of a friend and as a result of looking for new places to walk my dogs. A very cool place and there are quite a few pictures around on the internet of the different sculptures there. I didn’t know anything about the history of the artwork until I wrote the post online. I had assumed random people constructed the different pieces. It is a very cool place.
