fishing

Hello everyone,
This day was my first experience octopus fishing. I cought about 30 octopus that day and I ate about 15. This was one one the best fishing days I've ever had. I love fishing and have done it most of my life. The best thing was it was almost right out my back door. I was mostly in Sakaide and Marugame and went all the way out to Honjima.

Quartet

I have been singing in choirs and choruses since I was eight years old. In high school I sang everything from Benedictine chant to The B-52's, Mozart to MC Hammer. I sing the bass part, and since I am one of the few people who does, I try to sing out strong and clear. Some people heard me singing in church and invited me to sing in a quartet this Sunday.

Among the religions of the world, large group (congregational) singing is pretty much unique to Christianity, as far as I know, and is the root of much of Europe's great classical music. In most modern churches, singing is a form or worship, not a performance, so everyone joins in. Some churches have a formal choir that performs every week.



This quartet isn't anything official or formal, just three other people who like singing wanted to perform a special musical number and needed somebody to sing the bass part.
