Tonight I walked up one of the streets to Piedmont. There is a slight increase at elevation at the end of the road, so that when one reaches Piedmont, one is able to see some of Silicon Valley at night, with all of the lights. Just imagine what the view is like on one of the hills directly behind Piedmont, to the east! There are a lot of big expensive houses on Piedmont, as one might expect. It reminds me of the time we drove up to the hills to catch a glimpse of the valley at night... is it a fleeting world?

JL just called. Apparently her husband petitioned the court and was granted temporary sole custody, until a hearing can be held at which both parties can be present. Not surprising, since his stepfather is a lawyer, but it seems to be a sign that this is going to get ugly.
