Aquatic Park, Berkeley

Visited my daughter and Jesus with my dogs.  We walked from their place to the nearby park, where to my surprise they have water skiing.  It’s right next to the busy freeway and close to downtown Berkeley.  What a juxtaposition.  Our evening followed a visit to Peet’s Coffee on the newly renewed part of 4th Street, which reminds my daughter and me very much of Park Slope, Brooklyn.  Later we had dinner at Herbivore, which I had gone to many times on Valencia Street in San Francisco, but never before at their Berkeley location.

Lazybear

My friend Roy and I drove back down the coast (although he slept most of the way) to get home from Guerneville, after a loop around Armstrong Woods early in the morning.  The dogs have been there several times before, but I always try to find some beach time for them, and this was no exception.  This was a new lookout for me.  I’m always impressed by the beauty near Bodega Bay, and in Sonoma County, even though Highway 1 is tortuous and treacherous in the best of weather conditions.

Pictures here with me is my friend Ray/Ramon at the closing party for Lazybear.  Guerneville vendors usually have clever signage during this event, but this one below was the best one I think I’ve ever seen.
