It's Friday in Vancouver

65 (18C) degrees and sunny on this glorious day in Vancouver. It's Easter weekend which means a lot of things but also means that it is a 4 day weekend! With Good Friday AND Easter Monday off work. What a great thing (thank you Canada). Today is Good Friday, which is a somber day as we ponder Jesus' suffering and his death on the cross. But the hope of his resurrection is something to be happy about and therefore I am happy today. Happy that it feels like spring, happy to have a day off work, happy that the days are getting longer, happy to have friends over for dinner tonight and, of course, happy for grace and forgiveness. Happy Easter to all.
