Coconut palm tree: Received a "letter of transition" from UC Berkeley Law Practicum Associates and World University and School will work again with Prof. Kell in the autumn I'm very glad to say, Making progress too with indexing my "Naked Harbin Ethnography," Great violin pieces and Symphony

Hi M,

Happy mother's day 2 days after {almost every day is Mother's Day for me, I'll say with great appreciation and affection}.

Found these re the interesting Opera you saw yesterday ...

Haven't looked for a version of this opera on Youtube yet.

I received a letter of transition from Berkeley Law Practicum Associates' legal interns yesterday ... and World University and School will work again with Prof. Kell in the autumn, I'm very glad to say.

Making progress too with indexing my "Naked Harbin Ethnography" here - http://www.scottmacleod.com/ActualVirtualHarbinBook.html.

Hope you had a great day today.

Playing music with the Open Band is fun ... https://twitter.com/TheOpenBand.

Hi M,

Canyon was socked in this morning with fog ... a little like Cuttyhunk can be...Quiet, cool, calm here ... occasionally a bird calls.

"One line Mother's Day wishes" ... hopefully with me and my love having ~ 3 children, but with whom? ... she'll be a "keeper" as they say on Cuttyhunk ...

Going to see if I can find some video gems - Easter Eggs - of great classical musicians for these emails and perhaps for specific reasons ... eg Bach violin pieces that move me the most and happiness-wise - this perhaps

J.S.Bach's Greatest Violin Piece (part1)
