Kansas St
Kansas street is a long street, it goes up and over the hill.
There's a part that's too steep for a road to go through.
Instead, there is a driveway above that goes to a few houses.
And there's a driveway at the bottom that goes to a few houses.
And then there's a stone stairway that you can walk along to get from one to the other.
We are at the bottom.
See the yellow sign at the left? That says "street ends no outlet".
That's where the lower driveway is.
But look at the black staircase - it's part of that white building.
At the top, they have a garden.
This is the lower driveway, where it starts.
After the first bend, you see the stone stairs.
After the first curve, another set of stairs branches out to the right. This goes to the white house's garden.

I saw these nice violets.

This is somebody's garden. I have no idea whose it is.
It must be hard to figure out where the property lines are.
It all looks completely different on the map.
This is the first house you run into.
They have no garage.
In fact, no vehicle can come within 100 feet.
This wall divides their property with the neighbors uphill.
Looking back from the top of those stairs.
This is the separation between the two houses.
We are now far above the bottom driveway.
But that driveway goes quite a ways and there's several houses along it.
The chain-link fence is to keep people from falling.
The second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth houses.
We have now reached the upper driveway.
The front yard is concrete; it's easier than trying to run a lawn mower over it.
Agave plants. I think. There's a lot of these around.
Behind: houses along the bottom driveway.
These are the backs of the houses on the next street over, Rhode Island st.
I have no idea why nobody has tried to build a house on the piece of land there.
Finally, the driveway turns to a regular street.
