knowitall:

I will likely be in SD one week after you to meet up with a friend coming in from Boston.

On a sidenote, I gave a thought about going to see The Ring at SF after attending the season-closing performance of L.A. Opera's Lucia di Lammermoor (Sumi Jo as Lucia - beatifully sung mad scene!) as I have not seen live opera performance for years. L.A. Times, however, trashed the SF production fo The Ring in its review. What's your opinion?
