Yes, the Open Bar of Joy is Open!

The sun is out this morning, but last night, Easter evening, we had torrential rainful.....
but the glory of this and a few days of warm weather and bright sun
have awakened the horsechestnut tree...it's tightly held buds..that were set in fall
have opened their fists full of flower buds and leaves....soon the baltimore Oriole will be here
and the bees will be (!) performing their symphony all around the tree
It is a miracle unfolding....
... a day which the Lord has made
I rejoice
and am glad....
