April 2019
Yay!! April is here! April is the best month of the year (as far as I’m concerned,)...all the other months just pale in comparison. April in Vegas makes you feel alive…it’s that sense of renewal. In Las Vegas, April is a beautiful thing...partly because of the weather, partly because of the bikini clad women at all of the pools in town, and partly because of all of the activities and events that are replete throughout the city.
We received a lot of rain in the past couple of months (well, for Vegas, that is.) The average yearly rain total for Las Vegas is just over 4 inches. So far this year, we have had almost 5 ½ inches! That’s huge for Vegas, and now that we have a lot of sunshine, and the weather is perfect, everything is blooming. This same growth, however, that makes me feel alive is the same thing that make some people dread this time of year. I’m lucky. I don’t have allergies. For a lot of people, though, it is a tough month. The Las Vegas valley seems to find whatever it is that you might be allergic to and send it your way...so allergy sufferers...bring allergy medicine.
The monthly celebrations include: Keep America Beautiful Month, National Welding Month, and Sexual Assault Awareness Month. As for the daily celebrations: The 1st of course is April Fool's Day, but it is also International Tatting Day. The 3rd is Don't Go to Work Unless it's Fun Day. The 4th is Hug a Newsman Day, as well as, Tell a Lie Day. The 5th Go for Broke Day, the 6th Plan Your Epitaph Day, and the 7th is National Beer Day, No Housework Day, and World Health Day. The 8th is Draw a Picture of a Bird Day. The 9th is Name Yourself Day and Winston Churchill Day. The 10th is Golfer's Day!! The 11th is Eight Track Tape Day (but we’re not sure why). The 12th is Russian Cosmonaut Day, and the 14th is Ex Spouse Day, International Moment of Laughter Day, Look up at the Sky Day, and Reach as High as You Can Day. The 15th is Titanic Remembrance Day. The 17th is Blah, Blah, Blah Day and Pet Owners Independence Day. The 18th is International Juggler's Day, the 20th is my birthday, the 21st is National High Five Day, the 23rd is Lover's Day and Take a Chance Day, and the 26th is Hug an Australian Day. The 27th is Babe Ruth Day and Tell a Story Day. The 28th is Kiss Your Mate Day and Take Your Daughter to Work Day. And finally, the 30th is National Honesty Day (really it is.)
The Romans gave this month the Latin name Aprilis. The traditional etymology is from the verb aperire, meaning "to open", in allusion to its being the season when trees and flowers begin to "open" for spring.
The Lyrids meteor shower appears on April 16 – April 26 each year, with the peak generally occurring on April 22. Eta Aquariids meteor shower also appears in April. It is visible from about April 21 to about May 20 each year with peak activity on or around May 6.
April’s birthstone is the diamond.
The birth flower is typically listed as either the Daisy (Bellis perennis) or the Sweet Pea.
The zodiac signs for the month of April are Aries (until April 19) and Taurus (April 20 onwards).
While Christians are observing Easter; Pagans are celebrating Ostara. In ancient Egypt, the festival of Isis was held to celebrate the resurrection of Osiris. The Celebration of Dionysus always took place about this time in Greece; celebrating the return of the leaves on the grapevines. It seems that there is something innate that is built into the core of our being that senses this time of regeneration for the earth. There have always been celebrations in the spring honoring that spirit of rejuvenation. It is the end of winter. Spring is about re-birth, life after death, and a fresh start after a cold period in our lives. Spring brings us hope.
Lots and lots of stuff is happening in Vegas this month. So brace yourself…
