2011 in photos

It was a busy, interesting year. I had a hard time limiting myself for photos to show 2011 in review. I'm not sure of the exact count, but I posted between 2,800 and 3,000 photos of Oakland in 2011, across 80 albums. I attended a wide variety of Oakland events; went on walking tours of downtown, different neighborhoods, stairs in the hills, and cemeteries; ate at a bunch of restaurants and food trucks and drank at a bunch of bars, breweries and wineries; rode a lot of miles on my bike; and of course, saw a lot of cool signs.

Oakland is a pretty darn awesome place to live. Here's hoping 2012 is happy, peaceful, and prosperous for Oaklanders, and it becomes even more awesome.

Fabulous recap in pictures.

Where is the "saw" sign from? I don't remember that one.

Thanks!

The saw sign is from Pacific Saw Works, on MLK near 44th St.

Great fun pursuing the last year. I need to not miss Oktoberfest in the Dimond in 2012!

@monte - gotta get you to one the blogger meetups / tweetups, too! It's great to be able to put real faces and interactions with online names.
