Not a pet shop

[jay]

Many shops in Spain end their names in the suffix -eria... panaderia (bread), cervezeria (beer, a bar), lavaderia (laundry), etc. Fine. I was even amused at the hybrid "croissanteria" sign that I saw in Granada last week. Until I saw "ferreteria"...which turns out to sell hardware and kitchen goods, metal stuff (ferrous materials, not small wiry mammals ;-).

Off to shower and to work...

So it's not unlike Mission Bl. through Union City and Hayward? :)

One of my favorite things about California is watching how Spanish becomes Spanish/English hybrids on shop signs and windows. But now that stretch of Mission is gradually shifting. A local market was advertising a "Divali Sale!" a couple of weeks ago.
