Summer of Love

It’s festival season!  Which means the MaryJane girls are busy poppin up shop.  Last Sunday was the long running Haight Ashbury Street Fair now in its 35th year.  And we, along with Grey Skyline Prints, were posted on the infamous Haight/Ashbury block.  It was probably the hottest day we’ve seen in Frisco in a minute. …
