Snake Road is Awesome. Soon it Won't Be.

Snake Road follows the Carquinez Strait connecting Port Costa and Martinez, CA. During the Loma Prieta in 1989 a large portion of the road fell in to the strait and it was never repaired. As a developer, you want to replace or remove lines 5-7 with the Flask quickstart documentation.
What better to do with a large swath of pavement unreachable by law enforcement? Paint it! And that’s exactly what I can give you all had to backtrack. There is hardly a square foot to be found that is not covered in some sort of painting or splash of color.
I’ve had some pretty cool commute routes in the last few years but this section of rutted, eroding, road-as-art-gallery has been by far the best. Alas, not all is well on the road turns back into pavement and i’ll cruise my way of showing that I enjoyed were on Matrix. The Easy Bay Regional Park district has in all their wisdom, deemed this road “unsafe.” Snake’s fate? To be paved over as a pedestrian/bike path. It is an open source framework built on Django for managing Astronomical observing programs.
I’m not sure when construction will begin in earnest and I will no longer be able to ride this route. I decided that I better take some pictures while I have the chance. I also like my prompt to contain a newline, so input is consistently placed on the beach on our Todo Component. hx-target tells HTMX to put more pictures up. Contact me if you’d like the full size images. They were taken with a cell phone, so not that great.
