Full House

Whatever happened to predictabilities? The milkman, the paperboy, the evening tv. You miss your old familiar friends waiting just around the bay ...

I decided to it was important to dedicate a whole post to one of my all time favorite shows which happened to be based in San Francisco. You guessed it! It's Full House!

I grew up having a crush on Uncle Jesse, identifying with DJ, having Stephanie drive me crazy and wondering how many times Michelle could say "You got it dude!" in an episode. I'm thankful my dad wasn't OCD about cleaning like Danny, but we loved hugs around my house and were probably just as hokey at the Tanner family. So, it was only natural for me to hunt down a couple of great locations from the show while I was in San Fran.

 

Here are the Painted Ladies. These house are well known in the city, not just for being in the opening credits of Full House. But do you recognized them? Think back to the opening song when the family is having a picnic in a park and Michelle comes running around and jumps into Danny's arms. Recognize it now? Haha. The Painted Ladies are in a park called Alamo Square which is really beautiful! The neighborhood has gorgeous houses all around and it is really picturesque.

Once I made it to the park, I found out that THE Full House house was just a mile away, and so I just had to go. Thankfully my friends Megan and Landry were willing to appease me, so we walked many blocks to find this house. The show was obviously not filmed here, but they used the front of the house throughout the show. The address is 1709 Broderick, incase you ever want to go find it.

 

Seeing these houses reminded me of so many childhood memories. It was a fun little field trip around the ciy and a great chance to see some unique sights!
