Carlie did something she never thought she would do before moving to Cole Valley. That is, selling her car! “I am NOT going to mess with street parking every day. It’s horrendous around here. And besides, I really could use the cash!”, she exclaimed, while thumbing through her mediocre-filled wallet. She sat on the floor perusing through Next Muni choices on her smart phone. “Wow-y, wow-y. Look at all the routes that are within a thumbs reach!”, she shouted to herself. The mainline she was excited about was the N-Judah going downtown. So Carlie zipped on her khaki jacket and raced out the door towards Carl and Cole Streets, where the N stop stood. No sooner did she step up from the curb, swirled around with flying arms, excited to make a trip downtown, when she flicked her head upward and glanced at the 2nd floor of a corner building. Her eyes nearly popped out into the street. “OMG, IT’S ELMO!! I LOVE IT”, Carlie screamed. She has an affinity for soft, furry, cuddly things, and seeing this amused her. Upon future trips on the N downtown, she noticed Elmo dressed in funny attire, or wearing shades, or standing on his head! “THIS is why I moved to Cole Valley. A place with a sense of humor, is a place for Carlie Cole!”.
