Why I moved to San Francisco...


Reason #226: Mountain-esc hikes, just a short jog away





and then we climbed back down and had a few beers

Man, you have such great pictures of the place. I was in San Francisco almost twenty years ago and I still remember it as the most beautiful place in the US. I wrote a post about it once. It's there, somewhere. No such reasons to leave the house in Baltimore.

If they have beers in SF, that's all I would need. I suppose the view is an added bonus.

It does look beautiful there. It almost makes me want to move... I could never be a West Coast girl, though. :)

Are you living there? Permanently? What about winter?

Can I have your snowshoe then : )

Nice shots! That *was* winter :)

P: hmmmm, if only your site had some sort of search field.


N: anyone that loves beer is more than welcome to hipster bar hop with me. book your flight NOW


S: i've always felt like a west-sider trapped in an east-sider's body. it feels good to finally be myself.


B: yes i am here "permentatly" - it's been a dream of mine for some time. while i love winter, it's not strong enough of a reason to stay there. not by a long shot.


A: i can still use them to sand shoe!


M: true that. 50 degrees is brrrrrrr!

Hey, it's up there, on top left, next to the big B.

I actually did a search for it myself after I commented here. I think it's weird that I wrote very differently not so long ago. Very long paragraphs and all.

Anyway, the long story is that my parents took us to the US and we did the coast to coast thing, driving through middle America, stopping at each canyon and tree and landmark, and I didn't care about any of it because I was fifteen and who cares about mountains when he's fifteen? But then we got to SF and I thought I was in the coolest place in the world.

Here's the search (two posts come up--the later one is probably better written, just in case you feel like).

P: ah, I see it now. great story... you've inspired me to take the time this month to write about my experiences as an american child exploring other countries. having the opportunity to explore other worlds at such a young age had such an impact on me.
