Went to San Francisco last week with all the other geographers in the universe for the Association of American Geographers conference. (Any other AAG folks around here?) I didn't come away with a great variety of photos, but I did what I could. I didn't really get much in the way of neighborhood pictures and even spent one three-mile walk without taking any photos at all. But whatever. It was a nice time in a nice city!

I know some of my professors went out there and I was going to go but just didn't get a chance this go-round, maybe next time though

Too bad that city is so ugly.

I'd like to wrap San Francisco up and put it in a little box and send it on down the river.

Beautiful colors and nice weather.

Thanks everybody! The AAG conference is great because it's pretty much an excused vacation from school, at least in a geography department. I hope some of you other geography people will make it to next year's in Boston. Do it while you're a student if you can; it's a helluva lot cheaper! (Although frankly it'd be super easy to just wander in without registering, and plenty of people do.)

Yeah, a bunch are from Coit Tower and the other elevated ones are from Hotel Nikko. The conference was at the Hilton next door but there was some overflow into the other hotel.

From one geographer to another: excellent photographs!

As a graduate in Geography from San Francisco State, I say you did a marvelous job capturing our city. Like someone else mentioned, one of the best SF threads I've seen!

Yeah this STLgasm and JiveCitySTL are both haters. I actually think they're the same person who has 2 log in names, which BTW is totally lame. Everytime pics of SF are posted he has to post some remark to snipe San Francisco. He clearly has some type of grudge. That's ok if he does but he should keep his negative comments to himself and stay in East St. Louis which is where he's probably from.

^Calm down, there, newbie. They were joshing.

Such an incredible city. Simply beautiful.

Wonderful pictures, thanks!
