Tuesday was ‘Walk to Work Tuesday’! I walked before work, over lunch and then after work and my mileage came in at more than 15 which is nice. I left the house with Mr. Poe in the morning and started out by heading over to Liberty Hill and then Dolores Park:
I headed into the Mission. These pretty homes are on 20th.
It was a little sketchy in the Mission as it was still really early and the only people on the street were suspicious. Perhaps including me. I headed over to Potrero Hill and got a bunch of pics. I like Potrero Hill– it’s got beautiful homes and fantastic views but it’s ringed by some of the worst neighborhoods in the city and you have to be just a little more careful over there. Lovely views:
This is more an extended community garden than a staircase but it goes all the way from Rhode Island to De Haro at 19th:
Some of Potrero Hill’s beautiful homes:
I headed down to Bay Front Park and took some pics:
I walked back into work via the Embarcadero where once again I was frustrated in my attempt to get pepples donuts. So I ended up eating junk food all day which wasn’t a very good compromise. I’m gonna stick to Whole Foods vegan donuts because they are always open when they say they’re gonna be open and they presumably always have them. I headed out over lunch to go get a new battery in my watch at Macy. I headed there via pretty Joice Street which has lovely steps:
I then had the bright idea to walk home after work. I started off on Telegraph Hill and Coit Tower:
The view of the bay from the entrance to Pioneer Park:
Twisty Lombard Street:
I got home about a half an hour late. I would have only been ten minutes late but I spent 20 minutes in Whole Foods finally getting the donuts that had been denied to me all day and whose substitutes had not provided sufficient satisfaction. Worth it? Probably. I had dinner and got cleaned up and went to bed. Early, of course.
