Easter was about 14 days later last year.
Easter is VERY early this year.
I never realized it changed from year to year. Guess I just look at the calender and say "oh it's Easter" or hear about it from the Pastor at Church. I did a little research since you sparked my interest and for anyone else that lives under a rock:

Easter Sunday is the Sunday following the Paschal Full Moon (PFM) date for the year. In June 325 A.D. astronomers approximated astronomical full moon dates for the Christian church, calling them Ecclesiastical Full Moon (EFM) dates. From 326 A.D. the PFM date has always been the EFM date after March 20 (which was the equinox date in 325 A.D.).

I am getting tired of being cold.

We keep getting warm spells and just when I get use to it it hits again. Been cold up North for a couple of weeks and there isn't anything better in sight. I thought spring was in the air last week :confused: Makes me want to just stay at home snuggled up under the covers. We do have 12 hours and 13 minutes of daylight now and are gaining close to 7 minutes a day so that helps.

Hey Crumm, I washed my truck today, so by the law of statistics (and Murphy), a huge Chinook wind will blow in from the south, and it should warm up tomorrow into the 40's and possibly 50's, start thawing and voila, dirty truck again. I do what I can to help out! :lmao

By the way, I love how this thread went from spring temps, to country song lyrics, to post counts, to a history on Easter dates, and it's done so effortlessly. ;tu

It's getting closer here . I now have a yard full of mud. I can't walk across the yard with out leaving boot prints.
