I smile every time someone posts another photo of us on Facebook.<br /><br />I was at Berkley once or twice in the 70s. I was in the music business so don't remember the 70s very well. Or the 80s. I'm certain we were at a rock concert - maybe Neil Young or Randy Newman. The weather was gorgeous and everyone Rochelle Staabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08700362801884548978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8056815460076050228.post-21190740800849415092010-10-22T13:01:36.052-04:002010-10-22T13:01:36.052-04:00Lovely post, Sheila.

Talk about a dream job. <br /><br />When I returned to the East Bay from Seattle four years ago, I thought it was forever. I even set my first book on campus. Now I live in Atlanta. No matter, Berkeley will always remain near and dear to my heart.VR Barkowskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04927993233682731113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8056815460076050228.post-57107664135856417142010-10-22T12:43:51.949-04:002010-10-22T12:43:51.949-04:00I've never been to Berkeley.

However, your statement about old memories flashing over current reality resonated with me. I moved back to the town where I went to college years later and actually lived a block from one of the dorms. I can soooo relate to that statement.Lisahttp://www.lisaahne.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8056815460076050228.post-89735775120037176812010-10-22T11:14:43.652-04:002010-10-22T11:14:43.652-04:00I never lived in Berkeley, but as a southern Calif...I never lived in Berkeley, but as a southern Californian, always wished I did, and I had and have several friends who live there. I was wandering the streets a year ago. Both my parents graduated from there and still call it Cal.<br /><br />I visited my alma mater, UC Irvine, 10 years after I graduated from there, and felt like I was dreaming. Familiar and not familiar.
