One of my favorite things to do in San Francisco is to go on urban hikes. San Francisco, like many major cities on the west coast, has a lot of green space to enjoy. This weekend we “conquered” Mount Davidson. As I learned from Bay Area Hiker, Mount Davidson is the highest natural point in the city.
The view from Mount Davidson was spectacular. We mainly stayed on the east side of the hill and took in the downtown skyline. The view made for a great backdrop to take some photos.
Also located on the mountain is a giant concrete cross. In 1997, the Armenian American Organization purchased the cross from the city and placed a plaque to honor those who were victims of the 1915 genocide.
The hike was not too strenuous, and when you combine the 1.5-mile walk from my apartment, it was a nice way to get some exercise. It has been steadily raining for the last two weeks so it was nice to be out and about.
In other news, I decided to re-open my Etsy shop. I have way too many FO piled around my apartment. I also plan on listing some patterns that I have created as well. If you have the chance please stop by and visit/favorite my shop.😀
What did you do this weekend?
Until Next Time,

I love hikes like these! There are quite a few around Dublin and I love taking time out on a Sunday to do them 🙂
How fun! It is a great way to explore your city
I had a busy weekend here at home working on a special knitting project. It’s too cold and cloudy here to do any outdoor activities so I envy you.
Looking forward to visiting your Etsy shop.
Spending the weekend knitting is definitely on my list of favorites 😀
