Monday Mellow Yellows - Yellow San Francisco Home - May 27, 2013

One of the delights of living in the San Francisco area - and one of the
reasons I always have my camera with me - is the wonderful abundance
of beautiful Victorian homes.  Even many other houses are painted in
bright and beautiful colors that make you stop your car, pull over and
get out your camera.  I will miss those during my six months in India
but, thankfully, there is so much in that enormous country that I enjoy
photographing.  While I'm there sweltering in the heat, I'll remember
that I've complained my whole time at home that I haven't been warm
enough.  Right now, it's 61 degrees in Daly City, California and 90
degrees in Mumbai, India!

My World Tuesday, More Victorians, San Francisco, CA, USA, November 23, 2010

My World Tuesday, More Victorians, San Francisco, CA, USA, November 23, 2010

I just discoverd this meme and I hope I am not too late to post.  It looks wonderful,
with participants from all over the world so, take a look, friends and fellow bloggers,
I know you will like it and have much to share.

After leaving CA Pacific Medical Center yesterday morning, I drove around San
Francisco,up and down the hills and photographed more Victorians.  It was a gorgeous
day - no rain - though it has been pouring buckets today.  To make matters worse,
perhaps in sympathy with my ills, my desktop has been on the blink, making a clicking
sound, taking an eternity to load ( when it even will ) and causing me no end of grief
( haven't I had enough stress already ).  I do have a laptop but that has been persnickety,
too, of late.  Are the gods trying to tell me something?

At any rate, here are a few of the dazzling houses I saw yesterday with more to come in

the future....provided I ( and my computer ) don't get summoned to never never land.





This is my first time to post on My World Tuesday but I know I'll be back...check it out!!!

One can never run out of wonderful houses to photograph in San Francisco.  Today's

It's been awhile since I've posted on this meme.  I just learned that Mami has been going

through some pretty stressful times and could use everyone's prayers heavenward on

her behalf - check out her blog at Unknown Mami.  I have some photos of San Francisco

homes I took one day while driving about the city and I thought I would post them in

sections as there are so many of them.  In the 33 years I have lived in this area, I have

just loved the beautiful Victorians and their wonderful colors and have fantasized about

winning the lottery and being able to finally live in one.  With my 66th birthday

approaching in two weeks, I don't think that dream will ever be fulfilled.  Besides,

I keep forgetting to buy a lottery ticket.  I guess I should just be grateful that I still have

my van and can drive around and take pictures of them!!



Houses climbing halfway to the stars ( only this isn't really a high hill! )

This is one of my favorite houses in Seacliff
