October 2009: Everybody needs a friend. The little park around Chollas Reservoir in Oak Park, San Diego is a neighborhood gem and a haven of diversity. A place, where a variety of families is out for a few hours of play and relaxation with their kids on weekends, where kids can learn to fish, or get close to a wide range of birds, where people can be out for a run or exercise on a number of simple equipment, or where friends can just go for a stroll through the park, around the lake, or meet for a rendezvous in the reed (which, of course, is only for the birds, not the humans :-) ). Unlike in the upscale Balboa Park closer to Downtown San Diego, where tourists and locals are visiting museums and occasionally listening to concerts and opera performances, where San Diegans come for a volleyball match or other games or a visit to the dog-park, and where homeless people find some sleep after a harsh night on downtown pedestrian walks, life around Chollas Reservoir is simple, slow, full of contemplation, joy and piece. If you don't have a friend, you might find one there ...
