Best of San Francisco
More Info | + My Favorites

The first documented arrival of Europeans to San Francisco Bay was in 1769 when a Spanish exploration party, led by Don Gaspar de Portola, landed on the peninsula. Seven years later, they created the Mission San Francisco de Asis. Upon independence from Spain in 1821, the area became Mexican territory, during which time the mission was converted into a town by the name of Yerba Buena. For the next 25 years the town continued to attract American settlers. The area changed domination once again in 1846 after the Mexican-American war, when it was claimed by the United States. Yerba Buena was subsequently renamed San Francisco, which, due to the Gold Rush and promise of riches, would eventually become the metropolis it is today.

More Info | + My Favorites

Ranches are part of America’s fabric. The very idea of them conjures up images of wide-open spaces, sun-kissed cowboys and a slow-paced, idyllic way of life. So idyllic that every year, urban dwellers don hats and boots for a Western vacation on one of the country’s many dude ranches. City life is left at the metaphorical gate for horses named Bandit and Hawkeye, Rio and Deuce stand bridled and ready for the proverbial trail.

Yes, Yes Y'all - A Guide to West Coast Urban Art Galleries
More Info | + My Favorites

Contemporary urban art is a visceral and exhilarating movement that can no longer be ignored. Vilified by some, and championed by others, the evolution of the art-form has a storied past.

"Tagging" was soon taken up by street artists and art-school students who enjoyed the notoriety and competition of seeing who could leave their mark in as many locations as possible.
