Here in north Louisiana some of us have a saying. "If you get bored with the weather, just stick around; it'll change pretty quick and often."

Imagine!
Can you just imagine?! What it must have been like on that first Resurrection morning to see what had happened in the spirit world!

I don’t know if it’s because I have organized and put away the Christmas decorations, and redecorated the front door and the mantle at least.
