by day the blue will pale down into white where it touches the white of the land, after sunset it has a new circumference-orange, melting upwards into tenderest purple. but the core of blue persists, and so it is by night. then the stars hang like lamps from the immense vault. the distance between the vault and them is as nothing to the distance behind them, and that farther distance, though beyond colour, last freed itself from blue. -e.m. forster (a passage to india)

saturday evening
on our way to the studio for a rehearsal . .
there's still a minute left to choreograph. she's improvising it now. to set it or to not set it. that is the question.
. . another rehearsal down and it's exactly two weeks until the performance.
Yes! We're trying to figure out how we'll work driving there or flying there and staying there . . it's complicated because of the cats. They're fifteen years old and house cats who can be very annoying. One cat is fine but two are trouble.
Airbnb? Youth Hostels? I guess driving during the hot season might cause some trouble, but it all depends on how you go and what your car is like. Will you go down to Santa Barbara to see old places?? I just thought I would like to see Wayfarer's Chapel and the missions again.
I'd love to see Santa Barbara again, but I think we'll stick to SF. She'll be dancing Monday - Friday so I think it would be nicer to stay within an hour or so of the city. SB is about seven hours away! Greg can work out his San Francisco office but he won't want to take too long driving home again. I'm hoping to do a house swap, but we may have to do Airbnb if the cats are too much for Korrina.
That makes sense, especially if you might be without a car (or are you planning on renting one if you don't drive?). I really liked San Francisco when I visited in 1986. Will Chanda stay with you?
Is she still going to San Francisco?
