Don's 531 Day Plan to read the Book of Mormon aloud

A number of people asked about coordinating with my 531 day read aloud plan for the Book of Mormon.  I don't remember exactly when I started, but here's what I'm going with.

17 Aug 2014 is hereby declared as Day 1!  Page one starts with "I NEPHI, having been born of goodly parents, therefore I was taught somewhat in all the learning of my father;" I complete any partial verse, so that day ended with verse 5 on page 2: "with all his heart, in behalf of his people".

Today is 9 Sept 2014, so I should have finished page 24 which starts with "And it came to pass that the angel spake unto me saying: Look! And I looked and beheld many nations and kingdoms."

Alas, I had to read a few :-) extra to catch up, but as of today, I finished page 24, finishing with the top of page 25 "upon the waters, and upon the land also, to battle against them."

Maybe somebody can help me with the date.  What day will be day 531?  That's when I will finally read Moroni 10:34 "And now I bid unto all, farewell. I soon go to the rest in the paradise of God, until my spirit and body shall again reunite and I am brought forth triumphant through the air to meet you before the pleasing bar of the great Jehovah, the Eternal Judge of both quick and dead. Amen."
