the first photo was taken in bolinas, the hippie village up the coast from san francisco. where up until the late 80′s they kept hiding the traffic sign so no one would find them. if you did find them anyway this is what awaited you: hostile kids pointing guns at you.
on the other hand the mission back then was considered to be a dangerous area, but these kids are all smiles and concentration.
i am kidding of course. but somehow symbolic, i thought.
Wow!
