2.4 miles in Diamond Heights

Diamond Heights.

 

The key word is Heights.

 

I enthusiastically climbed to the top to take in the views.

 

Unfortunately, the homes hog all the views.  You can't see much from the street up there. (Side note: this style of house seems to be unique to Diamond Heights.  I can't say I've seen this style anywhere else in town.  So maybe these houses are the diamonds - rare and vintage.)

 

The one cool feature a pedestrian can enjoy is Glen Canyon along Berkeley Street.  If you recall, I walked down inside and up the other side of the canyon on my recent Miraloma walk. 

 

This canyon has a way of making you forget you are in San Francisco.

 

But then you find things nearby to remind you that you are still in this crazy, beautiful city.
