Hi All,
Do we want to coordinate what each person is bringing for the potluck on Monday? Cat mentioned bringing healthy things. Maybe:
Hummus/Dip (bring a knife or spoon)
Crackers/Pita bread
Veggies
Cheese (bring a knife for cutting if its not pre-cut)
Napkins & plates
Other ideas?
If I bring wine will people drink it? Or is this not a wine crowd?
Don't forget we have the panel so volume of people will be more than a normal class!
See you Monday. :)

Field Trip to Oakland!
Hi all:
Let's meet at Lafayette Square, at the corner of Clay and 11th. It is a short walk from 12th Street BART. Parking is usually not difficult.
Here're some web resources-
Lafayette Square and Splash Pad Park

Oakland Museum
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oakland_Museum_of_California
http://www.museumca.org/architecture-gardens
http://tclf.org/landscapes/oakland-museum-california
And I think I missed posting this reading:
Garett Eckbo, The Landscape We See, "Principles"
Please note- no response for this reading. I prefer if you are working on your written assignment.
See you at 2 pm on Saturday.

Hi Cat,
I see our syllabus for today says "Evaluate your site using handout." I'm not sure whether this evaluation is a writing assignment that we're turning in today? Sorry if I missed instructions during class or our field trip (entirely possible!), but I thought I should post this question to the blog in case anyone else is wondering as well.
Thanks!
Nikki
