Join me as we proceed to... THE FUTURE
Currently on display in UC Berkeley's Doe Library is "Transportation Futuristics", a small exhibit of materials detailing a variety of approaches to improving transportation. It's filled with monorails, super sonic aircraft, hovercars, and the like. The accompanying website showcases all the items, but not at a resolution equal to the original materials, so it's worth a stop there.
It's accessible any time that Doe Library is open, and is open to the public. Doe is open between 8am and 9pm during the week.

Oakland Museum Bike Tours
From the inbox:
Two tours will be led hy Oakland Museum docents on the third Sunday of each month from June through October. There are four separate tours that are offered: Downtown Oakland, Port of Oakland and West Oakland, Fruitvale District and East Oakland, and the Brooklyn District east of Lake Merritt.All tours begin at the Oakland Museum, 10th and Oak St. at 10:00 on Sunday. The tours last about two hours - with the Port and Fruitvale tours often a little longer.
If you'd like to join in these tours, which are leisurely and include the history, art, architecture, and natural history of the areas. please call the Oakland Museum of California Docent Office, 510-238-3514, to reserve a space. There is no cost.
This sounds like a blast. We just must the first one (June 20), but I'm looking forward to catching one of these before the summer is out.
