It’s officially summer and I want to get out and about

And I think I am finally getting used to what that means weather wise here in the Berkeley area. I reminded myself that although I have lived almost all my life in areas of the country where summer is HOT, there were those 6 years in Seattle lol. We are having warmish sunny days and in September the real hot ones will arrive and of course there is no rain.

And after living here for two years I really want to get out and do more. Hence, my summer exploring idea list.

DONE - Go to the upscale farmer’s market for fun. Live music, lovely if expensive organic produce, flowers and baked goods plus great smelling food stands and trucks. We only bought produce and fancy hummus but I have high hopes for the peaches.

The Berkeley Art Museum (possibly with a granddaughter or 2 when they have their art lab)

Car show on July 4th (we did this last year and it is a good walk plus fun to look at the old cars)

A botanical garden (we have two very large ones to choose from)

Ice cream or frozen yogurt plus a meandering walk

Go swimming (the city pool is an easy walk away)

San Francisco, Sonoma or somewhere in Marin county

A state park, the zoo, a museum, a beach, or winery - so many options
