There was no Photo Friday last week. As I posted, it was Halo’s fault. But Photo Friday is back (for now).

We recently stopped into Leon’s Bookstore here in SLO. I snapped a few photos of the place as it’s due to close forever at the end of the month. Like many of the older businesses downtown, Leon’s has to close while its building receives an earthquake retrofit. And like many businesses, it won’t be returning after the retrofit is completed.

Construction is omnipresent around here these days. This electronic sign states that our road will be closed from April 18th through May 2nd for construction. (Jen is very frustrated over this closure, as it’ll cause her to have to take an alternate route to work.)

It’s Friday. That means photos.

We got a new shed! Here it is, with stuff in it. See more photos of the new shed, as well as its predecessor here.

I walked over to the bus stop today to find what you see above. It was clear that the bus stop had been closed due to construction. Fortunately, the stop had been moved just up the road a bit. But still, it’s kinda annoying. Anyway, see more construction photos here.
