Sunday in the City.

In my next life I want to come back as a weather woman because apparently you get to say there's a chance of anything and everything and get away with it. Those guys said it was supposed to rain in San Francisco on Sunday. Does this look like rain to you? Nope. Gloriously sunny...not that I'm complaining, but I had my head wrapped around the idea of being really, really lazy and when it's this nice out, well that's just wrong. So camera in hand, off I went for a nice walk around the city. Here's some of the pretty stuff I saw.

That Touch of Pink.


Jean Pierre & Fifi.


Pie in the Sky.


1769.


Steel Magnolias.


Zig Zag.


Mellow Yellow.


Fleurt.

Ahhhh, lovely sightings. Thank you for sharing! I'll be in your neck of the woods in a couple of weeks so these photos just whetted my already hungry appetite for CA sunshine...

This reminds me so much of the year I lived in SF. Love the photos (esp. that first one.) Takes a special eye to notice small touches like this.

I got married this weekend and we are spending part of our honeymoon in SF ....... your pics always make us even more excited about the trip!

Your photos make me jealous. My town is currently covered in the not-so-exciting glow of pollen and drought. Everything is yellow and dusty and dirty. If we could get one day where it rained all night and the sky exploded into blue and cloudlessness like your first photo, I would dance for joy.
Thank you for inspiring me today!

OK. Somehow I knew it would happen one day or another: to take one of these pictures you would have been standing in front of my house! That's wild!

I walk by Fleur T every week after my daughter's ballet class so it was nice to see the sign from a different perspective. I must go in next time and actually buy some of the lovely flowers they sell, sigh! Shameful to live next to such great stuff and not enjoy it!! Thanks for reminding me :-)
