If I saw this graffiti tag in San Francisco, Oakland, or other large city I wouldn’t give it a second thought. But when I spotted this on the recently vacated Crogan’s Bar & Grill in downtown Walnut Creek I did a double take. I guess this is to be expected as Walnut Creek becomes more urban.

How’s the borscht?
At the Women’s March in downtown Walnut Creek on January 21st.
From an email:
I was out of town and unable to participate in the march in my own neighborhood (!). Is there some way to link up with the people who marched here? Are there local efforts to keep active around all the chaos that Trump is creating? I’d so appreciate it if you could refer me to someone other than the Democratic Party.
If you have a photo from the Women’s March in Walnut Creek that you’d like featured this week please email womensmarch[at]beyondthecreek.com and I’ll try to get it up.
