I must be slow

I must be slow because I just realized over the weekend that Easter is on April 24th this year. That's late people!

I kept thinking I needed to get ready for Easter (i.e. dresses for the girls, plastic grass, Bunny candy... the works!) until I researched it and discovered that Easter is still a month away.

In my "research" I discovered a few fun facts:
  • March 22nd is the earliest date that Easter can occur
  • April 25th is the latest date that Easter can occur
  • The next Easter to fall on April 24th will be in the year 2095
Here's a table that shows some interesting Easter dates. Notice that in 428 years, Easter has occurred on March 24th only 2 times!

Okay, that's enough nerdiness for one day. Have a good one!
Randomness by on
