Last Easter Sunday, we were having dinner over looking the Indian Ocean in Plettenberg Bay, South Africa. I can speak for both Arlene and myself in saying that, at that time, the last place in the world we thought that we would be on the next Easter is Tokyo, Japan. What a difference a year makes! :)

Everyone, have a Happy Easter whereever you may be.

Thanks Marc. Even though you are so far away, you still have your family here to help you celebrate the holiday! It's a good thing that we are online and portable ;)

Happy Easter to everyone. No better way to bring in Springtime in Denver than with 4 inches of SNOW tomorrow!

Have a Happy Easter everyone!

Ah, yes, Marc & Arlene - we had just arrived in Cape Town & were driving to Hermanus. Arrived just in time for dinner. What a gorgeous surprise it was for Easter! Yes, those are great memories & how wonderful that you are making more in Japan.

Happy Easter to all.

Love your dancing girls Suzie.

Marc: I spent Easter in Tokyo a few years ago and the cherry blossoms (and celebrations) were unbelievable. Are both in full swing now? Lee

Lee, cherry blossoms were fantastic this year. You can see a bunch of pictures that Arlene took on our blog . The peak was last weekend so the parks and cemetary were full of partiers enjoying Hanami.

Marc, they are beautiful. You have a Happy Easter! And Happy Easter to all our other LCT friends, from snowy Dallas! We actually had snow flurries here today! I couldn't believe it! We are normally starting to heat the pool about now to get in for the first time.

I bet the cherry blossoms in Tokyo are a sight to behold!

Our temps have dropped, too. It's been looking like rain all day today and it's chilly (by SOCAL standards!). Perhaps "SOCAL Stormwatch" by tomorrow!

Regardless of the weather wherever you may be, have a beautiful Easter Sunday!

Thanks so much for helping me out Karen! You are the best. We were raking our yard last week. Now we have at least 40 inches and it's still snowing! Nothing like a white Easter!! haha Happy Easter to all my friends at LCT.

Beautiful Card Ray!

I hesitate to tell you all this, but it was just glorious here for Easter Sunday. No snow in Tokyo!

I hope you all have a wonderful, blessed Easter

Posting this for Ray:

Even though we have some blustery weather, we're fortunate to have all the family together today and thought you'd like to see what the Easter Bunny left outside our kitchen window:



I had a Cajun meal flown in from Louisiana consisting of 20 pounds of boiled crawfish; crawfish etouffee; seafood gumbo; crawfish stuffed chicken; plus a shrimp, sausage and okera dish. Yummy!!!

Have a fun day!

Cheers! Ray
