The Bernalwood Action News Team was on Cortland last night for the 2014 Holiday Stroll, and in addition to all the seasonal mirth and good cheer, the whole thing was just ridiculously glamorous. The sidewalks were filled with music and cheerful crowds of Bernalese, and we even documented a Star Sighting:
Yes, that’s Bernalwood’s Cub Reporter posing with our new(ish) SFPD Ingleside Station captain, Joseph McFadden!
We noticed that the fashion-forward set was out in force as well. This stylish stroll-goer handily won the award for Bernalwood’s Most Chic Hat of 2014:
The only thing that could possibly top that next year would be to see someone walking down Cortland in one of those awesome plastic helmets Emilo Pucci designed for Braniff Airlines.
But we digress. More importantly, how was your 2014 Holiday Stroll?

The mariachi band was awesome, thanks Darcy!
Wonderful evening atmosphere on Cortland! Ran into many Bernal first-timers.

This was a lot of fun. I am an artist in the neighborhood and was wondering how all the artists displaying work in various sites got those gigs? Anyone have contact / info so I can pursue this for next year?
I had found a submission form on BernalBernal.com at http://bernalbernal.com/event/bernal-heights-holiday-stroll-2014/ .
The BBA event committee coordinates placements with business. Neighbor Alex emailed me with contact info for vinorosso enoteca.
Thanks Todd! Erin, or any other Bernal artists- if you are interested in showing at the next Bernal stroll please send an email to bernaldogg@gmail.com. I’ll send you the link to the application set up for the next stroll, once available. Thanks! Alex

And the weather was perfect. It was warm and dry – then the fog rolled in thick to add a sense of mystical mystery to the evening.
It was really fun! Thanks to everyone who made it such an awesome night!
