Hi joeboez,
Good luck with the checkride!
If you haven't already, take a look at
http://www.whittsflying.com/. The site has been put together by a very experienced instructor (around your area of California I believe) and has excellent information... including checkride reports for every certificate! Tons of links, just scroll down until you find the checkride reports / hints etc etc.
Best wishes,
Charlie Zulu
