I honestly had no idea what I was getting myself into back in 2000 when I pulled out a map of the US to figure out my next place of residency. There really is no method to my living madness other than I get bored and need a new adventure, which tends to involve me moving to another state. I figure why not, if I don't like it I can leave. It's safe to say I fell head over hills in love with San Francisco. I can't explain it but there's something about this city that makes me feel alive like no other place can or does. Don't get me wrong I like Austin just fine but my heart belongs to SF.
Seriously, words can't describe my love of it. I would walk my neighborhood almost every night out to the lion steps just to take in the fresh air and beauty of it all. Like some people hug trees (Kerry) I walk the hills to see the views of the water. I am well aware it costs a mini-fortune to live there and it's worth every pretty penny to do it at least once.
I guess I should come clean with the fact it was 75 degrees and sunny the entire time I was there earlier this month, and normally July is the coldest month out there, but whatever. I got a little trigger happy with the camera to take it all home with me.

Great pics, Katie. Thanks for sharing. I heart SF, too.
Beautiful! I fell in love with that place at 13. Looks like a great trip.
Beautiful pictures! I can see how you would fall in love with SF
thanks for sharing your pictures and your love for sf. i just got back from a weekend there myself. had an overcast day on monday, but had a great time!!
cheers to sf.
sf is a completely unique city. i've been hard pressed to find something that compares to it. seattle is similar, but lacks the volume of interesting personalities. auckland looks like sf but has more of an old world europe feel and isn't nearly as edgy as sf.
good pick for a place to land. plus, anyone can run flat austin. running the hills in sf is hardcore. hehe
I have never been but Kate and I plan on staying after CIM to spend some time there. Any suggestions?
