Fresh Voices XIV rehearsal at
San Francisco Community Music Center, including John Bilotta's Rosetta's Stone,
Yvonne Freckman's Close Encounters of the Hillbilly Kind,
Helena Michelson's It Isn't Music That...,
Richard Bagwell's
To Hell with Heroes, and
Mark Alburger's Abducted by Aliens (having by now finished the video subtitles through X. 1973 Pascagoula Abduction / 1976 Tehran UFO Incident / 1986 Japan Air Lines).
Out after with
Harriet and Vicky to
Cafe
La Taza,
then
make
the
way
back
beyond
the
margins
of
the
compromised
blue.
Upon
returning
to
the local area,
the huge
Monticello Fire,
on Rocky Ridge,
west of Winters,
looms large, so... cannot resist heading up 505
and
west
on
128
for
a closer look,
driving to a roadblock at Pleasants Valley Junction.
South from here, across Putah Creek,
lingering
looks
back
through the
Quail Canyon area,
then the peaceful (at least for now)
graben undulations,
and
errands...
Previous to all this,
videos as noted above,
purchase an audio-cable splitter,
and
take
journey
southwest
towards
stratified
sophistication....
High inland a toasty 99, on the 114th day of summer (63rd 80-or-beyond, 29th at 90+).
