Ramblings...

Thought for today from "Let The Great World Spin" by Colum McCann.

"All the lives we could live, all the people we will never know, never will be, they are everywhere. That is what the world is"

- Aleksander Hermon,
The Lazarus Project

I spoke with Joyce yesterday. She and Mel were in Seattle for Mel's brother's 50th wedding anniversary. She mentioned that Sharon had been sick. I had no idea. I will call her today and update the blog.

Easter - We had a nice family gathering at Monna's yesterday. Jill, Tim, Tatum, Piper, Brandon, Brian and Monna. Good food and a relaxing morning. Nice.

Boat - I have moved off the boat. It was a great idea, but some electrical issues made it problematic. I am now looking for an apartment.

Job - Great. A whole new world.

Weather - Saturday was absolutely gorgeous. It was one of those days that make you forget about the previous 6 months of gray, wet, bone chilling cold. A taste of weather to come.

St. Marks Cathedral decorated for Easter. I love the understatement of the Episcopalians. I usually go to Compline on Sunday nights. Only chanting.

Love the ramblings, and the pictures of flowers. Some days it feels like we may skip right over spring here in the Valley! Today appears lovely however, so hope remains.

Sharon had a perforate appendix (sp) and had emergency surgery. She is fine now. It certainly is hard to keep up with all the family news.

Well wishes and prayers for Sharon. What a beautiful church. I went to Episcopal services on Sunday and then to a Jewish Deli for lunch (we knew they would be open)

It was a beautiful service with a brass quintet.
