Because urban hikes have feelings too…

Well, I realized that after last night’s entry, I completely neglected a hike we had done in June, the same day we had gone to the SF Pride Parade. As opposed to the hike of doom, this hike was nice and short, and not nearly as traumatizing. However, our circumstances were again not ideal, as we had already been on our feet standing watching the parade for over three hours*, but we still really enjoyed it, and the neighborhood. While Bernal Heights (previous posts) isn’t overly easily accessible to us, more exploring in Corona Heights (this hike) is a definite possibility. The neighborhood is surrounded by nice parks with lots of green spaces, accompanied by views, and also has a really nice small community feel, with a street full of small everyday needs businesses (coffee shops, cafes, grocery, dry cleaner, etc.) and some community gardens.

Fog. Has become a part of our everyday experience since moving here. I’ve grown to really like it and how mysterious it makes everything look. Thumbs up.

Stairs and SF beyond. Thumbs…even? This was a great walk, but not the most aesthetic stairs we’ve seen (unless you appreciate a chain link fence, seperating…nothing from…nothing)

Dan branching out from the described route to climb the highest hill the park we were in. Thumbs up for him being energetic enough to do so. Thumbs down for me not even looking vaguely in his direction. (That’s me in the middle, standing by myself)
