Today was a big day for work on my project for week 1 of my music synthesis course. This is good, because it is due by Monday morning. I started working on it yesterday and continued today right after my regular morning routine.
In the mid-morning, I walked over to Hannah's place, where we began our first Torah study together at 11:00. We're following the triennial cycle, so we read and discussed the middle third of the first portion, Breishit. We both really enjoyed talking about the 2nd creation story, the affair with the forbidden fruit and the snake, and the surprisingly strange story of Cain and Abel.
After we finished, Hannah offered to take me out for lunch, and I suggested the Gulf Restaurant. She agreed and really enjoyed it as much as I did, I think. She had the taxi drop me off at home on the way back so I didn't have to walk uphill in the heat of the day.
I got back to work on my project when I got home, with a break to talk with Joyce and Richard in the late afternoon.
I chose to write a short fugue for my project, but I have to be sure it follows the required form and uses the 2 required instruments. Of course, a fugue is WAY beyond the real scope, but it IS permitted. I do still have my work cut our for me, though. Luckily, I also have most of tomorrow to work on it.
Since I didn't take any photos at all today, the pic of the day is another view from my walk up White Mountain on Thursday:
I walked a total of 2.3 kilometers today.
