I've been on hiatus for a while with this blog, as Rachele and I went on an impromptu Tahoe trip (see above), but the whole time I was gone, I was plotting streets and new routes. I guess you could say I'm somewhat obsessed!
Today I walked through Laurel Heights, and then over to Ashbury Heights and the Haight. In the Haight, I took pictures of Charles Manson's one-time residence on Cole Street, and wondered if he recruited his followers from the neighborhood - The garage he lived in is just a half block away from a busy section of Haight Street. It seems weird to think of a psychopath wandering around our beloved, funky Haight Street neighborhood.
In Laurel Heights, I walked by the Roos House, at 3500 Jackson St. (at the corner of Locust and Jackson). Built in 1909 by architect Bernard Maybeck, the Roos House is a San Francisco landmark (#56). The house is a two story English stucco and half-timber structure, and has Gothic influences.
I also walked by 115 Walnut Street, a B&B that my parents frequented a few years ago.
