street shrine

While driving around East Oakland I found this street shrine placed in a median strip designed to divert traffic.  Whoever created it included icons from India and China as well as incense and continuous music.  It was like a small oasis in the middle of the street.

    How really fun and colorful. I am in India for a couple of weeks, so when I opened your blog I just started smiling. I trust you are having a nice holiday.

    Perhaps we need more of these in our busy and hectic world!

    That is almost as weird as the statue of Lenin in the Fremont neighborhood of Seattle. Refreshingly weird.
