On the last day of the June sesshin, the 16th, we spent the entire morning working on calligraphy. Mr. Cameron, who contributed to the previous issue of Tesshu magazine, participated in the entire sesshin and finished it off by practicing calligraphy under the direct guidance of Master Genryo. He felt that as he wrote one sheet after another on the half-sheet, his characters became tighter and tighter.
On the 31st, the last Saturday in August, we cleaned and weeded the dojo from early in the morning in preparation for the resumption of regular meetings in September. After that, each student worked on his or her own work for the calligraphy exhibition in November.
