Great day
And since it's been mostly stress lately I want to document this. First went to Day of the Dead exhibit at Oakland Museum. And what was so great about it was they integrated the altar for the dead with modern life, such as gang tragedy. Some really touching altars, one in particular got to me, a man talked about how back when he was young the neighborhoods, before the gangs, were filled with proud people who yes struggled but yet, worked hard, walked proud, and didn't kill each other. A group of us were talking about how in the US we always feel we have to be "high" well what's wrong with being normal, human, and having some difficulties? Hell I know I do!
Then we did our walk at the reservoir, which was lovely and Fall colors were abound, then Deborah and i introduced Robert to Trader Joes. He had never shopped there, well it was like giving a frat boy drugs for the first time. he was quite thrilled. And spent quite a bit.
Then on to Bruns for party and eating. We also said goodbye to the stage itself. Which was touching for me. We walked around on stage and just took it in.
So back home now, on to Fall, and holidays etc. No more Calshakes for a bit. A good season says goodbye. Goodbye Bruns!
