April is the cruellest month. - T. S. Eliot
The "cruellest" month? Let's make it the "coolest" month! An Art Walk kick-off; grape stomping; live music, dance, comedy and theater; a Green Fair; and if that's not intruiging enough, the Easter Bunny is cropping up here and there! And more. The weekend weather forecast looks pretty good, so do your part to make "cool" triumph over "cruel" by getting out there and enjoying life!
Happy Palm Sunday, Happy Passover, Happy Full Moon, and, as always, Happy Wanderings!
