A couple of years back in Eureka with a lady friend who was showing me around on a cultural stroll.
This back alley mural is an homage to Eleanora Fagan, one of my great musical influences, and one of the most celebrated jazz singers of all time.
At the bottom of the frame you'll notice the two rails, the wooden cross ties long since buried beneath the asphalt of the alley. I stood wondering for a very long time why there was literally no clearance for passing trains.
