This isn't a particularly deep thought about California or the West but just a note that I will be returning to the Bay Area tomorrow and staying for just short of a fortnight. I plan on doing some deep thinking about all of this California business while there. Perhaps some of the fruits of that may end up here.
The rough itinerary currently includes the following:
- Hiking into the Berkeley hills so that I no-longer have to look at the sun setting over the Golden Gate via the internets (many thanks to my good friend Colin)
- Exploring the Redwood forests of the UC Santa Cruz campus to remind myself of what a sequoia really looks like, since those seedlings at the Portland Garden Expo have at least 100 years to go to be considered in the running for legitimacy
- Having a Mai Tai at the Tonga Room for aforementioned reasons
- Comfortably wearing short-sleeves (indoors or out will equally suffice)
- Discussing my academic career in Western History while among the Corinthian columns of Pacific academia
- Loving every second of it.
