Drippy Easter!

There wasn't a single moment today that it wasn't raining where I was. Fortunately, it was a more gentle rain than yesterday, yet it's still dark, windy, and now some thunder and lightning have begun. Additonally, it was unseasonably cold today, in the mid-50s all day in Afton. I'm back home now, having left Afton Station early due to lack of visitors.

The visitors I did have all came in this morning, and they were a hearty lot. One couple was from Brisbane, Australia and one from Peterborough Ontario, Canada. All four were finishing up the first third of their Chicago-to-L.A. Route 66 vacations, and thus far they haven't experienced a single day of favorable weather. They weren't letting it get them down, however. They were a spot of brightness in my otherwise gloomy day. The third couple to visit was from right down the road in Ketchum, OK and they were simply looking for something to do on this hopeless Easter Day. Betty W. stopped in for a while as well, another bright spot.

In closing, here's a photo to remind everyone of better days, and to wish all of you a Very Happy Easter!

Luke 24:4-6
4And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments:

5And as they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the dead?

6He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee,

A very Blessed Easter to you,Laurel.
