The Farnsworth Steps ~ Parnassus Heights

  ~           

           
I have previously written about the father of television, Philo T. Farnsworth (link below), and mentioned the steps in Parnassus Heights on Mount Sutro in San Francisco. He and his wife, Elma "Pem" Gardner, had a home there and the steps were named after him. These are images of those steps.
