Job rehearsal at

Chamber Arts with Keisuke Nakagoshi (here with Jo Vincent Parks),

Crystal Philippi, and

Kate Bautch -- with a before including page 7 of orchestration for The Creation: II,

down a

flowery

frondy Bart-dance-detoured path, and after with

Crystal to SF for a Goat Hall mail check (Douglas displaying his new/old pool table), dropping her off at the Conservatory,

then south

towards

Pacifica,

Devil's

Slide,

Gray Whale Cove (ah, for a warm day to linger),

Montara,

Miramar

Beach, and

Half Moon Bay, for a stroll from the Highway 1 north turnoff to

92 (continuing from a walk last November 2) down to

Poplar Street.

The potentially hazardous

route, partially along a

bike path,

is

not

without

its

charms

(academic

but

short-lived),

but of even more interest,

perhaps,

are the possibilities upon return to the car, and

the

way

north

through

San Francisco and Marin is also of dark portent, leading back to the composition of page 11 for Vespers: VI.
