First Day Of Spring


Bright and sunny early morning and hopefully it will be warm until midnight of today. Before Easter starts sometime between March 22 to April 25. This time? I don't really know if Easter is celebrated here. Really Canada is not a very religious country.

In my calendar the Vernal Equinox is now known as Spring Equinox. WTH changed the name? It cannot be Jesus. It cannot be God or Superman. Peksman. Batman. He he.

What's the difference between Vernal Equinox from Spring Equinox?

Vernal Equinox is the time of the year, in spring when the day and night are of equal length. While Spring Equinox is when you need to start your spring cleaning and have roast or grilled chicken for supper.

What else is celebrated for the upcoming dates? Thinking and thinking...another visit to the dentist and see the tooth fairy maybe.

What's happening in Japan? Minus the earthquake and tsunami episodes MARCH is actually a celebration of : Girls Day, Festival of Dolls, Peach Blossoms Festival. On this day esp. on springtime when girls used to wear their best kimonos and visit the house of their friends. Lots of peaches of course.

I should write a story based on peaches. Maybe HOUSE of PEACHES > the title. Then realizing I have so many bamboos in my novel then opted it would be better to rename it THE HOUSE OF BAMBOO.
