I’m late with this one, but I’m home this evening and remembered the day and season and, listening to so some music, also suddenly missed the days of blogging.

In any case, I wrote this once about Palm Sunday and Holy Week (and, as so often, times gone by), and here it is:

The now-deleted video on this post, I believe, was something very much like this one:
