Landfill dumping ground for torn down freeway became a unique and creative playground for artists! And a self arising garden. At Albany Bulb just off I-80 free.

do you ever wonder if graffiti artists are night creatures? as much as graffiti as I’ve seen, I have never seen someone actually doing the art work. Maybe that little squirrel knows the answer!

Good eye, Glad you saw Mr. Squirrel 🙂 I’ll ask him about the artist next time I see him. Perhaps some of the creatures featured here are self portraits of the night artist. You got my imagination running!!!

I think that little squirrel would tell you this landfill has not been abandoned 🙂

This is one of my favorite subject matters and you did a nice job of capturing it. I’m guessing you can call a landfill abandoned, at least the stuff in it, but I don’t think that cute little squirrel was abandoned. 🙂
As for me, normally I go after old abandoned farm houses and barns, but this time I decided to do something a little bit different. You’re welcome to come and see my take on the matter. 🙂

The stuff is abandoned the place is a very popular dog walk place that’s why Mr. Squirrel has to hide.

I remember one time when I was living in a fairly small rural community, I would put out corn cobs out after the corn had hardened into seeds and the squirrels would come and eat them. One time when I hadn’t put out any corn, there was a squirrel squatting on a limb above me, looking right at me and chittering very angrily at me because I hadn’t provided me its meal for the day. I thought that was quite amusing. 🙂

Excellent photos. I wonder if Mr squirrel is decorating the place up a bit 😉

Albany Bulb, yes. Go down Marin it will become Buchanan, keep going under the freeway until it dead ends and then keep walking West for a great view of the bay and art work. Really wonderful after a storm or Sunset 🙂
