Rainy in Emeryville

I'm in Emeryville, California with Elysa visiting friends at Clif Bar and Company. Drenching rain and blustery (50-60 mph) winds. Said to be the worst bay-area storm in five years. All local schools are closed. Seems like a good day to read and post and snooze in a dry hotel room. [NOTE: Just looked out the window and it seems the rain has let up. And all those kids home from school].
