One of my favorite things to do on a casual weekend when we're here in the city is take urban "hikes" around different neighborhoods. If I had to choose one thing, the architecture might just be my favorite thing about San Francisco. Our city looks unlike any other in the world. I love the beautiful homes with bay windows and colorful facades. Each neighborhood has it's own unique and charming style.
I snapped these photos one afternoon when we were walking around the Marina, and they're some of my favorite. I'd love to spend time wandering around other neighborhoods to work on my photography and have more photos of my favorite city. Who knows, maybe if I get good enough, I'll open a shop to sell a few prints.
I've been wanting to re-decorate our house lately, I haven't done much of anything in the 5 years we have lived here. I thought it would be fun to create a San Francisco gallery wall, either in our bedroom or perhaps the dining room that has had bare walls since I moved in. In addition to photos, I have old blue prints from the San Francisco Library and a black and white sketch of the city by a local artist that I would like to have framed. I think a San Francisco theme gallery wall would make a great conversation starter, and even when we no longer live in the city, we can display it to represent the place we built our foundation.
