Passover in the Ponderosa's....Not!

Well, its time to celebrate the wondrous moment in time when an Angel spared the Israelites (passed over them), smote the Egyptians, proving yet again...ah.... wait... I forget what it proves. The nice thing is its a family event. Read that again... its a family event. We gather, recite the same words each year, always sounding as though we've never done it before and celebrate the uniqueness of mankind; mankind who can imagine such things and then make a feast of it. Jewish Thanksgiving.

May all that celebrate this Sedar dinner expand its meaning in an all inclusive, every widening circle of family and new friends, until anything that separates us falls away, forever. And if we can do that in the Pines someday...that would be sweet too.

1 Vote for next year's celebration to take place in CS. Not to knock Bab's house, but I personally feel a little closer to Him when I am standing beneath those huge trees...
