Rustic Roads Part 3

Poppy Lane and Ohlone Way, Glen Park neighborhood: “Take me home, country roads!”

Poppy Lane is uphill a little from Penny Lane and runs both east and west from Diamond. Its east side is the only one of the three Glen Park street-signed “dirt roads” that’s not through. It doesn’t downhill to Bemis; heading east you'll eventually reach a tangly dead-end. Pix 1 thru 9.

So back the way I came in to cross Diamond for Poppy’s west part. Seen from Diamond at the driveway it seems to dead-end, but it turns and comes out at Conrad: 10, 11, 12, 13. 

Not far from here, off Sussex, just west of Diamond, Ohlone Way starts downhill. Out at Surrey near Thor: 14 thru 22.

Here on Surrey a neighborhood book exchange, pix 23, 24, is full of books to take, leave, or both. Love this! The house is a long-loved older one, corner Lippard.

    I like meandering around on San Francisco's park trails and public stairways, sometimes taking photos, and enjoying nature and the outdoors.
