2. With the competitiong announced through Flute Portal this is a good opportunity to talk about how to record your flute playing and convert it to MP3s.

Some snacks to share for mid afternoon break.

DIRECTIONS:

From north San Jose area:

Go south on highway 17 until you pass the intersection with 280, and keep going on 17. Exit on East Hamilton Ave. and turn left (crossing under 17). Continue on East Hamilton. until you pass South Bascom Avenue, then Leigh Ave will be close. As you turn left onto Leigh Avenue, Trinity will be on the right hand side almost immediately after you turn left onto Leigh Ave. It is a smallish driveway so you have to look closely. We will try to place a sign showing where to turn.
