Here is Ben's Purim Panorama that includes me... I am so glad he took it!!
As far as I know, this is the only photo of me taken during the Purim Party at the Gould's house. We are in the living room with a large L shaped table. The women are in the dining room to the left, also with many seats at the tables. I wandered a bit and took pictures everywhere. There was lots of singing, dancing, and discussion. It was heavenly.
The men who can give talks on the holiday that are quite insightful and interesting. Ben gave a brilliant talk. I was so proud of him!
I then asked to speak, and I spoke on three topics. They were well received. In one I showed how Ben's talk finally explained something that had always been unclear to me. (Ben liked that.;)
When I finished, the host said he still remembered the talk I gave the last time I was at his table. That was about more that 15 years ago, just after Ben's wedding. At that time I spoke about the physics of how HaShem actually created the Universe... I had forgotten that I spoke there, and I as thrilled by our host remembering the hot, dense, compact state at the beginning of creation. It's really described in Nobel prize winner Steven Weinberg's book "The First Three Minutes."
It was a costume party, and I fit right in with my EOS 70D Canon camera strap...;) I was dressed in a photographer's costume. And, everyone enjoyed having their picture taken.
I loved Ben's Galaxy Note 2 phone with its large screen that is very legible. I could effortlessly read the Hebrew Pages for Mincha, the daily afternoon service, on his phone!! That was delightful...;) I can't do that on my iPhone 4S screen.
Fortunately I love to attend Mincha , the daily afternoon service, so I am quite familiar with the service.
