May 2 - At Ease

Upon

reaching the

Nelson

Bikeway,

have

now

walked

a

continuous

path across town (c. 14 miles) --

a first for Harriet and second pour moi.

Retrace

steps,

automobilewise,

to

Joe's Creekside for another aperitif-and-appetiser assignation,

returning to continue a day of catch-up,

including more engaging

videos, in tandem to the editing of pages 7 and 8 respectively of The Decameron - Fourth Day: X and Psalm 122, on the 53rd day of summer, high 87 (13th to achieve 80-or-better)

May 1 - Alive

Off to Marin in the afternoon, for the first time in quite a while, paper-grading at Celia's and major financial greetings at the post box (New Music Publications and Recordings royalties from ASCAP), errands about town,

homeward on

101

and

37

across

Sonoma

(past

Sears Point Mountain)

and

Solano

(over Napa River Bridge

towards

Vallejo Cliffs),

I-80

northeast

over

the

Sulfur

Springs, on the 52nd day of summer, highest temperature of the year, and first at 90-or better, at exactly the delineation.

Upon return to Harriet, edit page 6 and 7 respectively of The Decameron - Fourth Day: X and Psalm 122, over more intriguing

videos.

The interval starts southwestward to magic Music Theory machinations with Jackson (re Carlos Santana),

a particularly well-received Dictation / Board-Harmony on

Elton John's Lion King,

an on-the-spot

Seventh-Chord Quiz

(substituting in Monte's class),

another attempt to rendezvous with Arts Division personnel,

and the jump coastward via Taylor,

Deer Hill,

24

(Orinda Canyon), and

580

(Point Richmond).

Additionally, finish score-study of Alan Hovhaness's Symphony No. 1, Op. 17: Andante maestoso (1937 - yet again, four pages total)...
