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
Double Piano Concerto ("Fellow Travellers")
and
Eduard Prosek's
The Curse
(across
a
dark
divide on November 9, Old First Church).
