Beautiful Houses!


Trip to Reno, originally uploaded by James Hemsley.

Lombard Street was lined with beautiful houses--all different from one another, and many covered in this gorgeous flowering vine....anyone know what that plant is?

The colors were so vibrand. This house was light and dark blue with these fuschia flowers.

We stopped about half-way up Lombard Street to see an estate sale that was happening inside one of the homes. Mostly, we just wanted to see what the inside of the home looked like. It was run-down, but with some renovation, it would be fabulous! The views from that house were amazing!

Vinnie and Maria are right. (Pronounced boo-gan-vee-yah)

It grows along the coast -- lots in Ventura and Santa Barbara...my favorite vine (can I have a favorite vine??)

Comes in all shades of pink to deep red...glad you love it too!
