Squeals of Delight (Finally) on the 19-Polk

An arguably more-welcome sight on the 19-Polk than the usual, wouldn’t you say?

From Muni rider D:

While on the 19-Polk today I saw a young girl squeal with delight at this little face. Definitely NOT a reindeer chihuahua! Such a sweetie that licked my hand as I petted her.

Well add my squeals of delight to the fracas (do you hear them?), because we haven’t had one of these on Muni Diaries since the holiday chihuahua of 2010.

Ghost on the 5-Fulton

Do you believe in ghosts? I don’t. But lately, for whatever reason, I’m sorta fascinated with them. Then Muni rider Sean sent us this, and it’s kinda freakin me out:

“Just saw this around 730am on the 5 heading downtown!!!!!!!”

There was a ghost, in a white sheet and everything, on the 5-Fulton, you guys!
