Alcatraz 2E 53 45 A vintage 1940’s truck with the license plate number, “2E 53 45” sits under an archway on the Island of Alcatraz.

Lady at the lights If looks could kill! I don’t know who she was looking at but she doesn’t look happy! Pictured on the corner of Washington Street and Grand Parade a few days ago while we waited for the traffic lights to change. Finn’s Corner, a sports clothes shop, has been on that corner…
