      Do let us know when you're hitting California (see www.CalCoho.org) or could use introductions to cohousing neighborhoods in general (www.CohousingCoaches.com). I've visited 101 different neighborhoods and know some of the challenges you'll face in building trust and relationship to the point where you can shoot usable footage.
