The history of April Fool's Day, sometimes called All Fool's Day, is not totally clear. There really wasn't a "first April Fool's Day" that can be pinpointed on the calendar. April Fool's Day is a "for-fun-only" observance. Nobody is expected to buy gifts or to take their "significant other" out to eat in a fancy restaurant. Nobody gets off work or school. It's simply a fun little holiday, but a holiday on which one must remain forever vigilant, for he may be the next April Fool! Luckily - no fool's jokes at work today. That surprised me, but then Brian wasn't at work all day either! The most welcome phone call I had today was from Kirk at 7:00 am that he was safely in Denver. He said the roads finally opened about 10:00 pm but that they were very slick and nasty - had to have his chains on for over 45 miles. I really don't like these spring storms. They are so dangerous. Just another day at work and the start of a new month, a new quarter, and hopefully a new season of warmth!
