November 3 - Return


Up at 4am with the heroic Bette and George,


for the jaunt to


Philadelphia International,



taking off for glorious points west,


over Colorado,


canyonic


Utah,


Nevada, and


California --


down, down above the High Sierra and


Foothills,


Central Valley and


Coast Ranges...


Mt. Diablo,


San Francisco Bay,


San Bruno


Mountain. 


A


very


meandering


course --


via


Long-


Term


Parking


Seventh


Floor,


101


in


 San


Mateo


and


San


Francisco


to


80


over


the


Bridge,


away,


away -- home, rest,


and


out


again


down


the


scenic



corridor


through


Solano


towards


Alameda,


re-overing


the


span,


for


the


second


rehearsal


of


San Francisco


Composers


Chamber Orchestra's


Fellow Travelers concert,


featuring


Mark Alburger's  


Double Piano Concerto ("Fellow Travellers")


and


Eduard Prosek's


The Curse


(across


a


dark



divide on November 9, Old First Church).
