And my California dreaming memories were of courting skin cancer (who knew?) with my best friend MaryLou as we worked into ever smaller bikinis over the summer -- resulted in stripes. I finally found ML via internet a few years ago and we are both incredibly happy with life partners of people of different sexes or genders or whatever.
Very Tio 70s indeed. Living or around - or in my case commuting through - the Berkeley hills is one of the great treats of life in my book. The view from Lawrence Lab is a good example of what one can see. I used to commute from the El Cerrito hills through the Berkeley hills east of the Cal campus and along Grizzly Peak to descend down Fish Ranch Road, through the Caldecott Tunnel, then along 13 down to St Cuthbert's. It was not a short drive but it was a spectacular one. I loved my commute.
Yes, I always loved Grizzly Peak Road. Nowadays when I go to Berkeley, I usually stay with Robbin, so I'm up there on Grizzly Peak. I used to have to go up there to fix things at Louis W's house, as I was the only guy around who knew anything about hot water heaters, etc.
That is nice.
