Creatures of the forest…happy Easter Sunday! Christ has risen and defeated sin and death for good. For vacation, I’m visiting my sister at her college in Virginia, and thought I’d do a little daily blog on this website! Above I’ve attached an audio bite you can listen to as well.

Today was magnificent! I woke up to the vibrant sun cascading into the cottage over the lush mountains. I took a nice warm shower, got into my suit, and drank a smoothie. Then we drove 2 hours to a Catholic parish and attended mass. It was beautiful! In Catholicism, statues are veiled for all of Lent. Seeing everything unveiled again was like the light at the end of a tunnel.

A priest from our home parish had been relocated to this parish, so we were hoping to see him. Unfortunately, he was very busy; Easter is a huge day for priests after all!

Then we went to brunch. But it wasn’t your ordinary brunch. It was at the grand “Hotel Jefferson”, built in 1895. It was insane!! I had biscuits and gravy, fresh fruit, carved prime rib, and carrot salad.

Yah. Insane.

Fancy hotels make me feel so good; the elegant bathrooms, the deluxe scent, and the exquisite chandeliers. It makes me feel so fresh! There’s nothing better.

On the car trip back, I talked with the family; it was a good, cozy conversation. I missed my sis, and I didn’t even know it. That’s a memory I’ll never forget.

Once we got back, I changed. And now here I am writing this on an oak table, looking out to the view below, listening to my sister play the guitar and sing! What a day!

I’m hoping tonight the fam is going to watch a veterinary show.

Today was definitely a day of memories I’ll never forget. Thank God for Easter!!!
