At the southwest corner of the 19th and Ocean Avenues intersection in San Francisco is a veritable “mini-forest” of cactus.
It’s hard to miss the mustard-colored house sporting a gang of prickly pear cactus plants in its front yard. The wife spotted it around the first week of her treatment at UCSF Medical Center, as we tootled up 19th Avenue to the hospital.
We used it as a landmark ever since.
I mean, whoever expects to see a garden of prickly pear cactus fronting a busy six-lane thoroughfare in the middle of a major city, anyway?
Not me, that’s for sure.
