May 5 - Celebration

Celebrate Carol's birthday,

a bit early,

at Claim Jumper.  

Before that

Owen's class (Minuet and Trio introduction) and the

9:30 Theory group,

Review Week 2,

with Alvin presenting J.S. Bach's Cello Suite No. 1 and

Mark Summers's Julie-O.

 Previous

to

all

this,

a

billowy

morning

commute,

and

the

reverse

thereafter,

on

the

56th

day

of

summer

(high

70),

editing

11 and 12 of The Decameron - Fourth Day: X and Psalm 122.

May 4 - Scenes de Ballet

Still even more catch-up, including editing 9 and 10 of re The Decameron - Fourth Day: X and Psalm 122, on the 55th day of summer, a degree cooler than yesterday, now 72,

with rather a lot of Peter Tchaikovsky's

The Nutcracker (1892).

May 3 - Remarkably

Like yesterday,

but cooler,

warmer,

drawing one's own conclusions,

more catch-up,

editing 8 and 9 respectively of The Decameron - Fourth Day: X and Psalm 122,

on the 54th day of summer,

high barely over 70,

at 73,

back to the Nelson Bike Path with Harriet,

now perhaps halfway to the Fairfield entrance,

stopping just opposite the ascent of Lyon Avenue,

across I-80,

returning to point of origin,

and 

back

to Joe's Creekside,

presently inside on this blustery evening to share a taco salad over margaritas blended and iced. 

Evening given over to

Sergei Prokofiev's Romeo and Juliet, Op. 65 (1935 / 1966 Royal Ballet production),

a suspect Sherlock Holmes tale, and general mostly-merriment.
