January 18 - Future Stock


To Diablo Valley College,


San Ramon --


only the second time in all these years (c. 14),


the first being substituting for a colleague quite some interval ago --


scoping out the situation,


in

preparation


for beginning teaching Music History there on the 23rd.


Before this, a morning outing --


on another chill, stormy day (3rd winter temperatures of the year, 5th of season, tying with 12/8 and 1/6 as 3rd coldest: 48; 56 Vallejo; 53 Pinole, 49 south of Danville), 1.95 additional precipitation (22.77 since July 1) --


down to Vallejo's Broadway


Bay


Area


Stage,


looking


over


their


space-


in-


progress 


and


rendezvousing


with


Stacey Loew to explore prospects re scheduling Fresh Voices XVII (August 5-6, 12-13, 2017).


Return


and


hit


the


trail


again re DVC, SR,


in a dizzing,


delightful(despite the inclemency) whirlwind...


returning to compose
