I'm in Turlock, CA, for a performance of my piano composition The Hole Through Which the White Light Shines at the Society of Composers Region VIII Conference at CSU Stanislaus. It was a good travel day, and I enjoyed the drive from Oakland. Tomorrow morning I will be driving down to Monterey to take a look around. It's only a couple of hours, and given that I'm such a big fan of John Steinbeck, it will be a treat to see his corner of California.
