Hi JP... I just went through 3 hours of an Orthodox Armenian Church service... Whewwww did it feel like forever... and I had no idea what they were saying (they were speaking in aremenian) until the old dude next to me said "Hey.. in the little booklet there's a translation" D'OH !! It appeared to me, that they were not celebrating palm sunday? I saw no palms at all... it is an Apostolic church, but that still falls under the category of orthodoxy, supposedly... But it seemed to me like they were celebrating easter today.

There are lots of Orthodox that celebrate Easter today. It depends on which calendar they use. In my church we use the Greek Calendar and Easter is usually the week after "Catholic Easter" but sometimes there is even a 1 month difference.

Yesterday was the first Easter in 3 years that I was with my family....so we wanted it to be about us and not about other people, so it was just the three of us. The only traditional thing we did was go to Church in the am...oh, and I made the traditional & famous 'bunny' cake (story another time, can't really be arsed right now)....Anyways...the rest was about fun & what we wanted. It was really hot, so we spent the day by the pool drinking coctails in the sun B) Had a blast & got some nice color too!

We didn't even cook...we went out to eat. Went to the club, ate like crazy, came home & watched a movie. Drank some more...hahah I was prolly quite the entertaining one in chat last night

So all in all, a great day!

Our Easter was kind of a downer, we went on a hike with SAHC , I was the guide. The Rancher's are p*ssed about undocumented hikers from south of the border walking all over their land, I guess they thought we were some trafficers or something, cause they started yelling at us and shooting guns. We had been on the land before , just back in December without any problems and it does belong to the Bureau of Land Mangagement so it's public land leased out to graze cattle. Anyway we continued up the peak since we were almost on top, when we got back to the cars we found all our vehicles had one flat tire, and 4 of the vehicles had slashed valve stems. We called the sherriff's dept. as we had done nothing wrong, no trespassing and had respected the cattle. The deputy took a report. The weird thing was he profiled the one guy in the the group who is an American citizen and asked him for his social security #. He didn't ask anybody else for it...

The deputy took the report and left, but this has become an ongoing issue out here in the Southwest with Rancher's, lynch mobs taking things into their own hands, and too many public access issues.

If the Rancher didn't want us on his land he should have wrote a note or something or called the Sherriff's Dept. instead of vandalizing our vehicles.

Needless to say,we got home and went to a nice Wild West Resturant after for Margarita's and some Mexican Food..

Despite the downer, I am blessed to have good friends, and that we were safe throughout this ordeal, and everyone had a good spare....
