From the supermarket that brought you water infused with fulvic acid and drinking vinegar, comes… Collagen Water. Collagen is a protein that is found in cartilage like your nose and ears. And now you can drink it!

When the stick-work sculptures made from woven willow saplings went up in front of the Walnut Creek Library at Civic Park a couple of years ago I knew they would be gone within two years, but driving by recently and seeing them missing, replaced by a forlorn dirt patch, made me somehow sad. You can still see the Hand of Peace sculpture and the recently completed colorful mural in the background towards the top left in the above photo.

How concerning is this? Step one for me is to stop touching my face!
From an advisory:
Contra Costa Health Services (CCHS) has confirmed the first positive case of novel coronavirus, or COVID-19, involving a resident of the county.
The person tested positive this afternoon. Our County’s public health lab conducted the test, which is expected to be confirmed by the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention in the coming days. The patient, who is being treated at a hospital in the county, had no known travel history and no known contact with a confirmed case of COVID-19.
This movie theater scene from 1995’s Outbreak makes me nervous:

N. Main St. & Cypress St, Walnut Creek
Last September we learned that N. Main St. near Cypress St. in downtown Walnut Creek would be getting a mini plaza with an expanded sidewalk and it has now opened. As you can see there are more benches and a play area but alas, the pomegranate tree is gone!

Considering the warning coming from the CDC yesterday about preparing for the coming coronavirus pandemic I was disturbed to learn that Contra Costa Health Services reported the same day that three coronavirus cases have been confirmed in Contra Costa county. Despite coming from people outside the county who are being treated in local hospitals does not make me feel much better because it’s just a matter of time before it spreads to more and more people.

Check out the renovation to expand the outdoor plaza at the Lesher Center for the Arts in downtown Walnut Creek. Click here for a preview of what it’s going to look like.
I would love to know what was going through the mind of the person who made this sign for the Lafayette McCaulou’s. Is this possibly a brand where the “i” is lowercase? What’s the meaning of this!?
I don’t mean to alarm anyone but the dinosaurs that recently appeared at Broadway Plaza in Walnut Creek have gone missing. If you spot them roaming around please do not approach them as they are extremely dangerous as they are known carnivores and may attack at any time.

Yesterday a vegetation fire gutted the Lafayette Tennis Club on Camino Diablo in Lafayette, resulting in, “IMMEDIATE EVACUATION in the area of Camino Diablo & Springbrook Rd.” according to a message from the Lafayette Police, which was lifted several hours later.
