Happy Easter

Yes, it really is Easter Sunday!

No group celebrations, so do something special.

Crank up Handel's Messiah on the stereo and celebrate.

It really isn't a Christmas cantata, it was written for Easter.

Or if you prefer try reading the accounts in the gospels and quietly contemplate Christ's sacrifice for your eternal salvation, that works too.

There are a few flowers blooming in the neighborhood, just not in my yard yet.  One neighbor up the street has an awesome display of crocuses in a raised bed.  Another neighbor has a big bunch of daffodils blooming already; they're planted on the south side of a house next to what is probably a very drafty basement window, hence their early start.

Here are some stock photos for your enjoyment.

Precipitation is falling now.
It has yet to "decide" if it will be rain or snow.
