Happy Leap Day! It's a DIFFeRnT kind of day. Did you know that a year is actually 365.242216 days long? So every four years (I'm sure you already know all of this) we add a leap day. The only exception to the every four year deal (you can find them by finding years divisible by 4) is Century years when the year has to be divisible by 400. As you can see high math skills were necessary before computers did our math for us.
And guess who added leap day to our calendar. That great calendar guy, Julius Caesar!
What a perfect lead in to day 13 of our Bow the Knee Hilldale's Passion Play countdown. Alex has learned the entire script. He says, "Bow before the image of Caesar you brown dog."
A dIffERENt kind of day reminds me... have I mentioned that the Passion Play is DiFFERunT this year? People say, "oh, I'm glad it's DIFFaRENt. It was the same for years." and then in the next breath, "this is where we do this" followed by a nice description of previous Passion Plays. Let me gently say one more time. The Passion Play is DIFFERENT this year. Don't be looking for a white horse in the last scene!
Our drama rehearsals have been going wonderfully. The actors are great! I know you are going to really like it. It's different!
