A travel photo retrospective
Local journalist, and member of the dedicated staff of edhat.com, Leah Etling spent her summer traveling the American West and Canada. She took hundreds of photos and will share a few from each state with Edhat readers in the coming weeks, traveling backwards through her journeys in California, Oregon, Washington,British Columbia, Alberta, Wyoming, Montana, Colorado, Utah and New Mexico. This week's photos are from Northern California.
These pink and blue houses make an eye-catching combo along 19th Avenue in San Francisco.

I want to say thanks to all my supporters, friends and family for their appreciation of this trip, and to my stylist Eric for his nice comment above (he gives great haircuts!).. I am very lucky to have been able to continue in journalism in Santa Barbara County, most recently thanks to the generous support of Peter Sklar and Edhat. Please email us your news tips at ed@edhat.com!

I used to love Trees of Mystery when I was a kid. They also had the "World's Smallest Bar" there which I believe my parents loved.
