Still early here at UC Berkeley, but a crowd gathering. Nice mix of many ages! #climatestrike

Yay BBQ! #july4th

Kind of a crappy picture, but it still shows what lovely colors the sunset has tonight

Today was hot. The forecast for tomorrow is hotter! OMFG, I'm going to need to find someplace with air conditioning.

Went out this evening to see the humpback whale that's been feeding in the lagoon off Alameda for around a week. The news stories say the whale is probably sick, but wow is it an amazing sight up so close! https://www.sfgate.com/news/bayarea/article/Unhealthy-Whale-Has-Been-Foraging-Fish-Near-13922801.php

OK, this is actually facial recognition tech that I approve of: https://qz.com/1623074/china-builds-a-facial-recognition-app-for-pandas/

Looking forward to more Curry vs. Curry in about an hour... #nba

The peregrine falcon chicks at the top of the UC Berkeley campanile hatched a little while ago, and now there's a vote to name the adorable little things:

Oakland celebrating tonight!! Not the finals, but it might as well be...

Second perihelion (close approach to the sun) by the Parker Solar Probe today! http://parkersolarprobe.jhuapl.edu/index.php

Can only afford nosebleed seats for regular Warriors games, but got to enjoy great ones for the G League Santa Cruz Warriors yesterday. Caught 2-way player Damion Lee (26 points that game) hitting a 3 in this pic

I won't pass the mark for another 2 1/2 hours here in the SF Bay Area, but Happy New Year to all the #Cosonauts who are already celebrating!

Christmas tree looking bountiful!

Presents wrapped, just need to fill the stockings tonight! Merry Christmas Eve, #CoSo!

Morning CoSo! Enjoying a trip out of town, and I have to say, winter holiday coffee is the best kind of coffee! #caffeineclub

Stay safe, Bay Areans! High wave warning from the NWS until tomorrow morning: https://www.weather.gov/mtr/ #CosoWeather

I am not the chef, but this is what I'll be eating soon-ish. Yes, that's a BBQ grill it's steaming in! (I love California where the weather makes that kind of thing possible)

I joined on day #2, but I'll celebrate with everyone today! Happy Birthday CoSo!!

Bit of political satire posted on a street corner in Berkeley

Another smoky day in the Bay Area. It doesn't smell nearly as bad as yesterday though
