It's been a challenging couple of months in Berkeley. On the one hand, I have had a Field Permit from the city, which allows me to park anywhere in Berkeley without having to obey the 72 hour limit.  But it's been really tough getting connected with water and power.  I'm learning that urban environments are the hardest. Especially when it's raining, my solar panels are getting nothing, and there's no available outlet.  
But now the promised city government support has come through, and tomorrow I'll have a reserved parking spot in a good location for the next month, and a city employee in charge of getting me hooked up with a water supply and emergency power access.  

This is especially welcome as I've learned that I need a much slower pace to my travels. Crossing the United States in a month was way too much for me.  Now I have some time to rest up, show people my Vehicle, and focus on my writing.
