Things Are Looking Up

It has been a long time since we have had any really nice weather, but that is about to change. Through the first half of March the weather was very pleasant, dry, mild and rather sunny. Since then we have had to endure a steady diet of cloudy and chilly days with showers of rain, snow and "graupel". Again, that is the meteorological term for snow pellets, which look like mini hailstones but are quite soft and squishy. Squishy is not a meteorological term. At any rate, for the next few days the weather will be drier and warmer. Tomorrow will be mainly sunny with temperatures reaching into the mid to upper 50s, which is just about average for the middle of April. On Thursday we should break into the 60s, and on Friday get close to 70 degrees. There will be more clouds by Friday, and perhaps a sprinkle or two somewhere, but for most of us it will be very nice...for a change. On the weekend we will cool down a bit and the shower chances should pick up again, no...not graupel this time, just plain old rain. On Saturday and Sunday look for high temperatures around 60 degrees.

Today was an interesting day as we continue to settle into our new digs at the church. Since moving the offices on Saturday things are still a bit higgledy piggledy (another very technical term). We are in the final stages of getting the audio and video system installed in the sanctuary, so I am playing with that to determine what is the best way to get pictures on the screens and sound through the speakers. Along the way the bugs are showing up, which hopefully will be squashed by this weekend. It is a big weekend indeed that we are coming up on, with the Open House on Saturday and the Dedication Service on Sunday. Keep a heads up for some media coverage as well, as today I sat down for an interview with Rebecca Nappi of the Spokesman Review and on Friday morning I will be live from "the front porch" with Dean and Angela on the Morning News Express on Newstalk 590 KQNT radio.
