Bus Report #1102

Stepped off the bus at Potrero this morning, a damp and oddly humid day, rain threatened for later.

J. and I said goodbye to fellow bus rider Gabby and we walked to the corner to cross the street. Jeff walked by - I've known him over a decade from Peet's - so we hugged and exchanged a few words before J. and I continued down the hill to our office building (she works upstairs).

At Rhode Island and 17th, an unusual sight greeted us. 

A lanky, thin coyote ambling down the bike lane near Whole Foods.

I couldn't stop watching him, though J. didn't want anything to do with the coyote, and kept her head down, and walked faster. 

We passed Smuin Ballet and I lost sight of the four-legged new neighbor. 
I hope he found his way back to his patch of green space, wherever it was.

The rest of the way to work we warned the dog walkers near the park, but none of them seemed too bothered.
