Cole Valley

On an early Sunday sunny spring morning, her arms outstretched and still in bed, Carlie noticed something very, very, very strange. Could she be hallucinating? After assembling her tortoise-rimmed glasses firmly on her face, she wobbled over to her bedroom bay window and looked again at this sighting outside. There, on the pavement, below her building, was a glowing cross coming from somewhere above. Was it beaming down from another galaxy? Are aliens ready to land? “This is creepy, and I am definitely going back to bed hoping that when I awake again, it will be gone! That it will all have been a dream!”, Carlie quivered in a humble whisper. Fast forward two hours later. The cross was still there!

Carlie is very musical. She is a trained pianist. Not only does she have “perfect pitch”, but loves music of all instruments, man-made or natural. Carlie first heard their chirps when walking through the local park. “Oh my word, what was that sound? Did someone’s pet parrot take flight to the friendly skies of freedom? Hmmm!”. Carlie looked upwards and to her surprise saw several green birds swarming above her. “Wow! It looks like the wild parrots of Telegraph Hill!”, she yelped in amazement. It just so happens the San Francisco’s famed cherry-headed conures, immortalized in a movie and book, have moved westward to Cole Valley. Carlie was so thrilled to have more music added to her new neighborhood, that she ran home, and played a CD of Maria Callas.
