Dia de los Muertos / Day of the Dead November 2, 2009








Photos of the altar we made for my sister Yolanda; my friend Rachel's uncle Jesse; friend Nancey's father and dog, Dharma; friend Brian's dog, Phoenix. Garfield Park (in San Francisco's Mission District) was absolutely packed with revelers, so we found a lovely spot in quiet Balmy alley (where there are a lot of murals) under a Datura bush. The top picture shows one of the Datura flowers with the full moon above. Click this italics text for a fictional essay based on this event for my social media / Twitter novel.
