42f en route to a Springy 66f.


Pikes Peak and all other mountains continue to lose snow at record pace.
This vista is how I see it from my house.

The two sub timberline peaks below Pikes summit are Mt. Arthur and Mt Garfield, 10,800- and 10,900-foot summits.
The snowy peak on the left is 12,375' Almagre Mountain.
The scree slope of Run Down Fast Mountain is snow-free, meaning it should be safe to plant.
I don't believe it. We're more than a month and a half away from the typical last frost freeze of Spring.

I am amazed the Artemis mission doesn't command more attention and news.
Many people with whom I spoke had NO idea what the mission was, or that it was happening.

The first moon landing was a watershed event for us.
I remember it as if it was yesterday.
I was in Pomona, California at Don and Celeste's house, sitting in front of a stinky air conditioner.
We all watched it on the television.

Where were you?

Practiced the Easter music Friday at church.
We sing Never Again, a work with a different perspective of Christ's flesh being torn and blood spilled...

Never Again – J Inness
Never again shall Jesus Christ have to die,
or have His flesh torn for me!
Never again shall Jesus Christ have to die.
Or have His blood spilled for me!

How great is thy name, oh Lord!
How great is thy name, oh Lord!
How great is thy name, oh spotless Lamb,
Oh Son of the Father, Great I AM.

Never again shall Jesus Christ have to die,
or have His flesh torn for me!
Never again shall Jesus Christ have to die.
Or have His blood spilled for me! Amen

We'll sing traditional Easter hymns,
Up from the Grave He Arose
He Lives
Christ the Lord is Risen Today

My postludes, Worthy Is the Lamb, and the most celebratory music in my repertoire, the
Finale of the Tchaikowsky Piano Concerto No. 2 in bB
I programmed the Casio keyboard to play the orchestra parts.
For the Messiah, it is a hauptwerk pipe organ.
Practiced today to feel it and be in sync.

After church we have a community event in the parking lot.
All kinds of fun stuff for kids, egg hunt, bounce houses, food and drink.
We hired a DJ so WE can help elsewhere, like serving food.

Shout "He is Risen" across Red Square, and you will hear "On voistinu voskres!"
He is risen indeed!

I am sorry for the poor way so many frauds who seek glory, power, personal advancement, and wealth represent faith and religion.

The felon's solicitor was asked by Gorsuch if his definition and explanation of domicile meant US born Native Americans were birthright citizens. He could not answer yes.

Find a way to make today a good day!
Happy Easter!
