Do you know why the date Easter Sunday falls on each year can vary from March to late April?... Easter Sunday is the first Sunday following the Paschal full moon, which is the full moon that falls on or after the vernal (Spring) equinox... Paschal is derived from a transliteration of the Greek word "Pascha" meaning Passover...
My niece Filly lives in London now and sends me pictures she takes of the full moons also... I miss her so, but she reminds me "we are both looking at the same moon"... I took this photo early this morning as I was walking Tessy of last nights Paschal moon starting to go down over the Great Salt Lake to the west... so, this is for you Filly... Happy Easter to my family "across the pond"... I love you all so much!... xoxo Juju

What a great picture, Julie Marie. It's amazing and comforting to know we are all looking at the same moon. I hope Filly is enjoying England, is she studying there?
