We had great time visiting with Matt and watching him receive his PHD in Chemistry. Enjoyed how pretty Berkeley is with all of the old houses and charm. But parking was a hassle and especially stressful with the big old black 1 ton dualie. Jack became quite the pro in maneuvering in some really tight spaces. Gotta love that man's driving skills! And thank God for Safeway parking lots!
Matt lived in a little canyon tucked in Berkeley with some state parks close by, it is amazing that there are still tracks of wilderness in the midst of such an urban area. The view of the SFB and Golden Gate bridge was phenomenal.

The first day we took Zuzu and Wodi and walked around the neighborhoods in Berkeley. Wodi decided he had enough walking and laid down and would not get back up. Our poor little pup was plain tuckered. Jack being the gentleman hiked back on his own to get the truck.
Yum- we did some good eating while we were there, the highlight being dinner at Chez Panisse (and Matt paying). Matt's goal was to eat there when he received his PHD. It was truly fantastic and worth the wait. Great time celebrating with Matt and Kenny. JLS
