January 18: “Old” San Diego

San Diego, CA

At the urging from several of you to get out of the house more often, this morning I drove downtown for breakfast with a woman I had not seen in 26 years! We had a great “catch up” at Hob Nob Hill.

Also***Don Nieman*** from time to time posts interesting shots of old buildings in Buffalo, NY. We have very few vintage buildings here in San Diego; however this home caught my eye today. More often we have new construction of condos and apartments. This construction just across the street. See below:

What a beautiful house and it looks so well kept.

This old house is superb - such style and full of different designs and textures. Well spotted. Let's see more of 'old' San Diego, but maybe I'll pass on the Condos!

that's a cool house. looks like it has some Asian influence mixed with the Victorian architecure. Good image Robin.

Cindy Flood		19-Jan-2006 03:16
Someone has really put a lot of work into restoring this lovely old Victorian. Nice capture.

Excellent clarity. What a gorgeous and romantic porch! Another date with a pretty lady, Robin? How DO you do it?

Mindy McNaugher		19-Jan-2006 02:28

I love this beautiful old house, Robin.

Great house Robin. I like the angle you shot at.

Lovely house! LOL @ Laine! Maybe because I live in a bunker... :D

Lee Rudd		18-Jan-2006 22:12

Cliff		18-Jan-2006 21:23
I thought maybe you'd moved to a new house Robin ;O) Lovely old home !

Bob Foisel		18-Jan-2006 21:20
Nice capture of a great house. I see your not wasting any time also....

laine82		18-Jan-2006 20:00
The first is certainly more pleasing to the eye than the second bunker with windows !

I'm down in Atlanta for a few days where old buildings are everywhere (except where I am!). You need to get over to Sherman Heights and some of the older neighborhoods Robin. There's even a few "haunted" houses over there. :^O Should we do a trip there?

Herb		18-Jan-2006 19:51
Very nice, you were out and about early

Gary Blanchette		18-Jan-2006 19:51
Oh how I would love to just sit on that porch for a day and let life pass me by. Great shot Robin.
