Wordless Wednesday - McCoppin Park
McCoppin park is located in my neighborhood in the Sunset/Parkside district of San Francisco. I pass by this park all the time while running errands so I never have my camera with me. The other day I was perusing Craigslist when someone had asked for help in rescuing a husky. Basically this person lived in Napa, CA and while on two seperate trips here was walking her own dog in this park when she came upon what she called a "lost wounded husky." Long story short, she alerted the police who are located right across the street from the park who told her to call animal control. She did just that to no avail, they would not help her. So, she placed an ad on CL hoping for someone to help her.
I felt bad so I went to the park between rainstorms in order to locate this dog. I never did find him anywhere but I was able to get some good shots of trees and bushes while there. In hind sight, that was probably a stupid thing for me to do. I could have been walking right into some sort of trap and I realized this after I got home, emailed the woman who placed the ad and she has yet to respond. In any case I got some photos I normally would have never shot.
Enjoy!

Thanks for your comment on my blog. We were in HK May of 2009, just last year. Wisdom Path is already a different experience. The whole place is so relaxing. I hope to bump into you in one of our travels.
Your pictures turned out marvelous though.
They might know.
Sparkle, I know, I should have thought it trough before I went out.
Ann, that was it I was thinking about the dog and nothing else. Thanks for the comment.
Doan, thanks so much.
rainfield, why didn't I think of that? They would absolutely know. I should have consulted you before I left :D
The weather, the bridge, the people, the water.... *sigh*
I like the pink bush. It's different. I'm not sure I would have thought about the risk either, but maybe in a city I would have.
jam, exactly, they've been around for a while
jena, not at all. My camera is one of those six in one deals with a camera, video, audio, mp3 player etc... it was very cheap but it works well at least in well lit situations.
ian, I completely agree with you and thanks for visiting.
Icy, thank you and me too :)
Emm, LOL we have had our share of stormy weather this past week but it is very nice and even warm now. We don't have seasons in San Francisco. The bridge is glorious not matter what the weather is like :)
Shark, The more I think about it, it could have been dangerous and I should know better. That bush is interesting. I don't know what it is but I always liked the color and shape. Thanks for stopping by.
Great, great pictures!!!
