D
1391.2 Miles
Cade and I stayed at a friends house in the Mission District while we were in San Francisco. We pretty much walked everywhere which was great because we got to see oh so much!!
Day 1
Walked from the apartment up Height St and over the the Academy of Science. I don't know if you have ever been, but it was SOOOOO much fun. Last time we were in town it wasn't complete.
After the Academy we walked back down Height and ate lunch at Cha Cha Cha! So much yummier that Portland's Cha Cha Cha. I had a fish sandwich with "new potatoes," but they are known more for their tapas and sangria's.
My favorite shop on Height was on the lower side, called Doe. They had the cutest things and some amazing art on the walls by Thylacine Graphics
Last place we went for the day was Rare Device, a boutique on Market St and right behind the apartment. Last time we were in town we happened to stumble upon their Grand Opening Party. I didn't remember their little gallery last time, but currently they are showing Buddy System by Little Paper Planes from now until August 31st [my birthday!!]

Renegade San Francisco
Post 1 of many...
San Francisco was absolutely AMAZING! Cade and I had the best time walking around the city being tourists. Renegade was also quite fantastic. I met so many great people and saw so much great work. I even found the time to run around and buy a few things. My favorite find of the day is this shirt by MNKR Clothes, first cause it is awesome, second because Kandace and Matt are super sweet and nice and third cause its AWESOME!!! I wish I had bought the second shirt, but I will see them again at Unique LA in December.
I am a HUGE card collector, mainly because it is an inexpensive way to collect art work, but also so that I have a card for ever occations for every friend! A few spaces down from me was Gold Dust Studio, and their artwork is so fun. Beautifully screenprinted, with excellent choices in colour theroy! I think I got just about one of every image they had in greeting cards!
I also got a sweet little note Pad by Mehoi of her character, Crazy Jim. There wasn't an image of the note book, but here is an image of Crazy Jim.
Unfortunately I really wanted just about one of everything from all of the vendors, maybe next time! : ) Cade and I did manage to find a second to get our photos taken in the Magnolia Photo Booth by Peter Tower. Its just too bad that Im not good under preasure in front of the camera!

The only other thing I had time to get around to purchasing was this fantastic tote bag by Jose Pulido of Mis Nopales Art. He had so many great designs to choose from, but Im all about functionality and this is my new purse [i dont typically carry a traditional purse cause all I ever have to carry around is my cell phone and my wallet].
