Photo from the Road: Thirsty & Hungry Hippy

I saw this cardboard sign on the ground next a garbage bin on Haight Street in San Francisco. Although it was cool to see the neighborhood where Jerry and Janis once hung, the Upper Haight today is mostly filled with homeless people and hippy posers. But if you make the trip, it’s worth checking out the specialty clothing boutiques, vintage clothing stores, shoe stores, smoke shops, tattoo shops, resale shops, and few restaurants and cafes that line the street.
