From my Facebook page:
Goodness, I'm more than a week late in posting this. It's June 8th and Birdie Roy is already across the pond. Well anyway, she and I had a lot of fun at the Oakland Museum of California a week ago last Friday, May 31st, 2013 which is when and where I shall place it on my Facebook timeline.

The occasion: Friday Nights @ OMCA, the reopening of their Gallery of California Natural Sciences, and the second screening of the Great Wall of Oakland's Internet Cat Video Festival.
