They came from the South

It started out
as a trickle, thats why I didnt notice it at first. Nothing out of the ordinary, really.

And then, more and more.

Now, its like we've been invaded.

Joggers.

All over the place, specially near the campus and the Pretty Areas up by the hills.

The folk around Berkeley are pretty health conscious, but you dont see them doing things like *jogging* on a regular basis.

Hell no.

They ride their bikes, walk, hike, all that.. but jog? Not really.

So what gives?

Aha. School just started. We've got an influx of students.

A lot of them from Los Angeles.

Where they do conspicuous jogging, not so much the bicycle riding. (I mean, who rides in LA? Right Jules? ;-)


Ok, I was wondering where all that spandex was coming from.
-----
Another clue that the Angelenos are back, is that all of a sudden, there are stylish students. Many dressing as if they're still having fashion competitions in High School.

Definitely not from Berkeley High.

Eh, that'll change as the school year goes on.

Soon you'll see them walking around in the daytime in bunny slippers and pajama bottoms...

Plus, the cold will soon return (according to the natives), and comfort, not style will prevail.
