Observations indoors, outdoors on street, and colloquialisms

Berkeley, Saturday, September 12, 2026 7:40 pm

OK. I will write brief things in here. It might not sustainable to write in here. Would see?

I still I think I can make it to the library before 10 PM. And basically, answer a few emails, before continuing working on my dissertation.

I will cook dinner now though.

Now and then shows up a new path or small street which I have not seen before. i.e. Juanita. That is not far from the former banks of Schoolhouse creek, just below the junction to Lincoln Creek. Lincoln Street still exist around that area.

I am not going into details now, surprisingly, but the upper watershed of Codornices creek, in the Berkeley Hills, and might be of Marin Creek as well, is crossed by streets and paths, which names, represent names of several writers and poets connected at once with Berkeley. i.e. Charles Keeler, George Sterling, Joaquin Miller, Bret Harte. Well I went in actually some detail. There are names of landscape painters, remember on the streets as well, [just interrupted by several text messages]. Ok. The landscape painter was William Keith…

I will keep writing a few things but need to cook, and then organize myself.
