John, 
Thanks so much for your email and interest in the Restorative Yoga explorations on Saturday's at 8 am Pacific Time ...

And great, John, if I've moved forward the WUaS Academic Medical Center and the Yoga hall into a vacant, with property deed 670 Ridgecrest Rd, Canyon 94516 by tomorrow morning, but it's not looking like it yet  ... Maybe Saturday May 2 ... Have a great trip to Tahoe!
