This segment discusses the last Gilded Age and the new one we are experiencing now. If you were standing on Alamo Hill in 1776, you were likely walking or riding a horse between the Mission San Francisco de Asis and the El Presidio...

The Bay Area has been under the Spanish flag, the Mexican flag, the California Bear, and the American flag. Sonoma was part of Alto California during the Mexican Land Grant era and was home to General Vallejo. When California became a state the Bear Flag was hoist...

He mapped to Sitka, Alaska, and discovered that Russia had little more than a fur trading outpost in the territory. After others had failed, Juan Francisco Bodega was successful in his mission, so Bodega Bay, B...

When his presence on the streets day in and day out made him famous and a local hero, he used his position for a good cau...

      Most of the homes in San Francisco are built touching. Even if houses had an extra side lot, most were sold off during the tough times of the Depression or high energy costs of the 1970s and 1980s.

    I don't ever see such beautidul bright colors in nice houses, I guess a lot of people think good taste equalls neutrals and monochrome. The staircase is one of my favorite parts, is it possible to go up to the witch hats? I'd love to visit, it's just a Bart ride away.

      @bonniespindlerthevictorian6148 10 днів тому

      It’s true that a lot of people seem to gravitate towards neutrals and monochrome, but it is so refreshing to see houses with personality and color! The Victorians loved bright colors on the inside. The outsides were more muted. Yes, both witches caps are rooms. There is also an attic.

You are obviously outstanding at your chosen profession, but you are also an excellent host and storyteller. I think you know that my brother Tom lives in Folsom, CA with his wife and two girls.
