If you haven't tried it before now might be a time to try Weight Watchers to lose that winter weight and get yourself on a program. They help with food and exercise and give you encouragement along the way. I like their circuit training video! Do it for yourself.
Get Faith
Colossians 3:12 "As God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience." Coming into Holy Week, we celebrated Christ coming into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday. The people were happy and dancing, enjoying the great love that Jesus inspired in them - celebrating the peace and joy that was theirs in community. Let's keep our hearts together in this peace for the time being, because we know the story and know the violence is coming at the end of the week.
On this day
1997 How nostalgic is this? Nicole and I, after school and work, went to Big Boys for dinner and then to the show for 101 Dalmations. Hmmmm, we have that movie here.
1349 - 3,000 Jews were killed in Black Death riots in Efurt Germany. https://player.vimeo.com/video/154464174
For contrast watch this video - you can't keep good people down.!!!
Parenting
Ever wonder how when something is finished you wonder how you accomplished it? How it turned out so well? If you have read my book - Come Get These Memories of the Sixties you would know how hard I find it that my Nicole has turned out to be the kindest, gentlest and faithful soul I know. I thank God for her everyday and believe He had the lions share of affect on her life. In a similar situation people asked "How can anything good come out of Nazareth?" Look for the best in everyone.
The Sea of Okhotsk
Climate[edit]
Wakkanai has the typical humid continental climate (Köppen Dfb) of Hokkaido, with cold winters, warm summers and generally heavy precipitation from the Aleutian Low, whose winds hit the city direct from the Sea of Japan. The mean annual temperature, at 6.5 °C (43.7 °F), is the second lowest for a significant population centre in Japan after Nemuro. Snowfall at 6.6 metres (260 in), the third highest for a big city in Japan after Asahikawa and Aomori and one of the highest anywhere in the world. For comparison, Nain in Canada receives 194 inches (4.9 m) of snow.
The Aleutian Low also makes the sunshine hours the lowest of Japan’s major population centres and in the winter the wind speeds are the highest in Japan with an average of 20.2 km/h (12.6 mph), which adds to the −4.7 °C (23.5 °F) cold of a typical winter day. The city's port is usually usable throughout the year, but does occasionally freeze in cold winters. The weather here appears to be very similar to ours here in Michigan. So dress up and lets visit the sights
How about this guy that came from Wakkanai and became a Boston baseball player?
Enjoy the day! Make it memorable! Happy Birthday John and Red!
