3.7 miles in Noe Valley/Mission
Seek and you shall find. I was on the hunt for Christmas decorations and friends said to head to Noe Valley. It delivered!
The stores and restaurants along 24th Street were nicely decorated.
Here are the standouts:
Best Use of Pine Cones: The Urban Nest SF
Best San Francisco Theme: PlumpJack Wines
Best Use of Retro Lightbulbs: WinkSF
Best Use of a Snoopy Inflatable.
Creepiest Use of Holiday "Ho Ho Ho" Paper: San Francisco Mystery Bookstore
And then there was this mural. It has nothing to do with the holidays, but it's cool. It deserves an award too. How about: Best Use of Teal Spray Paint.
Lock downs are getting old so I revisited the first 16 months or so of your walks.
ReplyDeleteEven better the second time! I followed a few links; you'll be pleased to know many are still going concerns. (AND.... inna pickle/jam ships!)
I was also reminded of what drew me in so long ago:
Younger Allison loved Tudors and apparently, had to check pay phones for dial tone.
I've been away from home for almost 50 years... thanks for sharing through new eyes!
Merry Christmas
Thank you! You are absolutely correct - I was and still am a sucker for Tudors and old pay phones. :) Until I can get back out to SF to walk in person, I, too, will have to vicariously walk through my old blog pictures. Have a very Merry Christmas!
