A tour of San Diego alleys
Alex's article has made me appreciate my morning walks more than ever. I have always enjoyed walking the alleys over the streets. My dog knows every house that has a dog living there and I have learned so much about the personalities of the people that live in your zip code. The front is usually a facade, but the back is who they really are. I live in Dallas, TX, and even though we have many alleys they seem to have no comparison to the ones described in this article. Or... maybe I just haven't explored enough of them. I'm inspired. Who knew (I didn't), that cities actually promote their alleys as a tourist attraction. It is a quarter to nine (in the morning). I'm going to fill up my travel mug with coffee and jump in my SmartCar and head out of my neighborhood in search of interesting alleys. Then I am going to plan an interesting alley-side of my own house. A description of my character. It is time to let my neighbors know who I am. It would be great if I will inspire the rest of my neighborhood.— September 20, 2009 6:54 a.m.
