      Same here. Happy Easter to all. This is the first Easter I remember that came before the dogwood tree was blooming around here. Below is an email I received about Easter being early this year.

      Subject: Easter Is Early This Year (2008)

      Easter is always the 1st Sunday after the 1st full moon after the Spring Equinox (which is March 20). This dating of Easter is based on the lunar calendar that Hebrew people used to identify Passover, which is why it moves around on our Roman calendar.

      Found out a couple of things you might be interested in! Based on the above, Easter can actually be one day earlier (March 22) but that is pretty rare.

      Here's the interesting info. This year is the earliest Easter any of us will ever see the rest of our lives! And only the most elderly of our population have ever seen it this early (95 years old or above!). And none of us have ever, or will ever, see it a day earlier! Here's the facts:

      1) The next time Easter will be this early (March 23) will be the year 2228 (220 years from now). The last time it was this early was 1913 (so if you're 95 or older, you are the only ones that were around for that!).

      2) The next time it will be a day earlier, March 22, will be in the year 2285 (277 years from now). The last time it was on March 22 was 1818.
      So, no one alive today has or will ever see it any earlier than this year!

      Interesting!

          Thank you and Happy Easter to you and yours, as well!

          Happiness is sort of like wetting your pants....everyone can see it, but only you can feel the warmth.
