[Susan, I confess I didn't connect you to your MANY-times-viewed avatar]<br /><br />Shortly, Doug, I'll try to scan&upload some pics of St Mark's as my parents were marrying there: 4/21/56! [My mom was Cal alum: maybe that's who you were thinking of?]<br /><br />Maybe you'll have some more Berkeley architectural photos, Doug, when you've had time (and knowing you, research)? Of course, you may want to post SF pics, too: always acceptable!<br /><br />Hey, DOMA was overturned today, and the places seen above are celebrating the Death of "H8"!

Tam's full name. ;-) It's just spelled differently. I don't think we actually spelled it out phoneticallly.

I am not an alum of Cal. I graduated in '68 from Tennessee Tech in Cookeville, TN. I only sang in the Chamber Chorus at Cal many years later in the late 80s-early 90s. But thanks for the bump up!! <3 <br /><br />The pictures are very nice!susan s.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03679099677585214433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2343439372519556254.post-37123152294600587772013-06-26T20:31:42.290-04:002013-06-26T20:31:42.290-04:00A cross-country train ride with you and Michael wo...A cross-country train ride with you and Michael would be great fun.June Butlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01723016934182800437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2343439372519556254.post-69696992856457565782013-06-26T20:30:12.579-04:002013-06-26T20:30:12.579-04:00You'll just have to come out and join us next ...You'll just have to come out and join us next time Grandmere.Counterlighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14345956180434795401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2343439372519556254.post-58896195028917892122013-06-26T19:59:30.564-04:002013-06-26T19:59:30.564-04:00How lovely that you met up with Susan and JCF.

Of course, seeing the statue of the coach had to be the high spot of the visit. <br /><br />St Mark's is gorgeous, inside and out.

I lived in the East Bay hills, commuted through Berkeley to work at St Cuthbert's, Oakland, and was a former member of St. Mark's, the parish that sponsored me for priesthood. Many visits to Cal. Glad you and Michael could get away (much deserved) and are safely home again.Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06090720645937634051noreply@blogger.com
