Interesting, Boss - would like to hear about it after you go.
 
Our family will not be celebrating Easter until next week as husband is on his duty tour. However next Sunday will bring the typical Polish morning celebration of raisin toast, hard boiled eggs cooked in onion skins, kielbasa (boiled of course) and the necessary horseradish. Each food represents the parts of life. Sweet/raisin bread translated into kindness, eggs for stability, horseradish as a reminder of the sadness/bitterness of life and kielbasa - because all Poles love it. Actually I think it's to break the fast of the Lenten tradition of no meat.

Then of course the traditional Easter dinner which this year will be with special friends.

Enjoy the holiday and if you are not celebrating enjoy the weekend and life. We are all so blessed to wake up in the morning and make our own decisions which seem small but nevertheless represent freedom and life!

Now, go hug each other. :grouphug:
 
:iagree:

Well said Judy!

Best to all

Just the normal yearly routine here, church, easter eggs/ basket,dinner, but still always a special weekend with friends and family. I hope all have a wonderful weekend.
 
This will be the first time in decades we don't make a Semi-Annual In-laws Trek for Easter. The last Easter not spent with family was 1974, spent it sitting in S.E.A...

Nothing catastrophic goin' on, just a sea-change with plans.

We'll be celebrating here. Happy Easter!

And Passover! Chag Sameach!
 
Typical Easter Sunday for me: two full services with choir. In between is one of only two times a year (the other being Christmas Eve) when I get to play an "extended concert" on our 11-bell tower chime. I've been doing both choir and the chime since being a small child in the early 1960s but, for the first time in almost 10 years, I've actually got an "assistant chimer" who will play several hymns!

It's a great tradition, not only in the spiritual sense but also pertaining to the industrial history of our area, as the several bell foundries in and around Troy NY supplied so many bells and chimes locally, across the US and around the world. (And the foundry that made our current chime was located a whopping two blocks from the church!)
 
Andy - do you know Wray Lemke here on the forum? Another bell-ringer.
 
It's Easter already? I'd better get some jelly beans before they're all gone.
 
Perhaps someone could video the sounds and church and post (maybe Youtube?). I sure would like to hear them.
 
Chimyao! Reminds me of the 1968 Richard Bradford novel, "Red sky at morning". The Sangre de Christo mtns. Watch out for Los Penitentes, or are you bringing your own cross and lash? It should be beautiful at this time of year. Happy Easter all. --elrey
 
Busier Easter than usual here, SWMBO has been filling in at a little church near by that will likely soon be closing or amalgamating - they absolutely love her. I was to accompany her but this week another colleague got sick so I'm covering all his services - 5 services between us and two directions. At least my sister is covering supper this year.
