2013 - April Fool!
According to legend, April Fool’s day goes back to the days of the Druids
where priests tried to ward off evil spirits during the planting season.
According to an article in Wikipedia, the earliest reference to April 1 and
April Fool’s Day can be found in Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales (1392)
Today, April Fool’s Day consists of light-hearted pranks, tricks and jokes.
With Spring coming to much of the world, many people are ready for a chance
to lighten up and April Fool’s Day is the perfect remedy to allow them to be
silly and express some of the creativity that has been bottled up during the
long, cold, dark winter months.
Rather than spend time reading what we have to say, we urge you to spend the
time enjoying the day, in whatever way works for you
Happy April Fool’s Day! May your day be filled with fun and laughter
