11 October 2012

I got up and out of the house by about 5:50 this morning. I drove up highway 12, parked the car, and hiked up Nakhal Yoash to its beautiful little valley, a place I LOVE to visit. It's just such a peaceful, beautiful, and unexpectedly little valley! This time, I climbed up to the top of a hill that is located in the middle of the valley. It was a little harder than I expected to get up there, but it gave me an interesting new perspective on the place. I took several pictures, so perhaps I'll write about it and post one of two of them in my old blog, maybe tomorrow or on Shabbat.

This morning, I went into town on a couple of errands. First, I needed to get our prescriptions for the month filled. There were quite a few people at the Maccabi pharmacy, so I had to wait a bit, but I got them filled successfully. Then, I walked across the street to one of the pet stores. We put our 3 cats out on the balcony for the night. The balcony has a roof, but there are cracks between the boards, so it's NOT designed to be water-proof. We figured we should get some better shelter for the cats before it rains. I found a nice wood "house" that will be just the right size for them. Together with the balcony roof, it should keep them quite dry, even if it rains. Of course, there's no forecast of rain here as yet, but eventually we probably will get a few days of rain at some point before next summer, and now we're ready!

I talk 4 classes today for a total of 7 units (one of them was a 1-unit lesson): 12:45-1:30, 2:30-4:00, 4:00-5:30, and 6:00-7:30.

David and I took a short walk this evening and rested a couple of times on benches in the green strip. It was a little warmer than yesterday but still very pleasant out.
