Where in Castro Valley: Cactus in a Basket

Do you know where to find this basket of prickly plants?

Post your guesses in the comments section below.

Guess correctly and be crowned "Castro Valley know-it-all" for the week.

Unfortunately, no one was able to correctly guess last week's photo challenge. The barrel can be found inside in the Castro Village Shopping Center.

Another problem: When notified of a reply to a comment I could click the link in the email to go to…Read More the article. That was not possible this time. So because a small minority zooms there computer the layout should be as it is? I don't think so. All that white space means that an article that could be read with just one or two clicks to scroll through is now going to take more scrolling to view. One thing that seems to be missing in today's world are web designers who (1) change the layout just because and (2) web designers who have neglected to consider the audience. The more I look at this layout the less I like it. The font needs to be darker than it is. the blue (like in "announcements") needs to be bolder. Overall, on a scale of 1 to 10 (10 best), I rank the new "improved" design a 3.
