Unseasonably Cool "Good Friday"

Mornin'!  It's 41° in Wildwood.  We're currently under clouds and will remain a mostly cloudy day.  Typical "Good Friday" weather.  As a child I remember Good Friday to always be gray and dreary and sometimes even stormy.  Today...just gray and cloudy and did I mention "cold"?  It won't get a whole lot warmer as the temps should read mid-upper 40s.  No sun or rain in the forecast but it'll feel chilly and raw.  Winds will be wifting (I mean wafting) over the island from the NE at 8-10mph.  Tonight...right back to where we are at the moment...clouds and low 40s.  The weekend's looking fine as there's more sun with each passing day while temps head back to the 60s.  A couple Easter egg hunts this weekend!  One at Lincoln and the Beach and another in North Wildwood at 19th and the Beach tomorrow.  And, on Sunday 23rd and the Beach.  Morey's amusement pier opens Easter.  In the words of Simple Minds..."Alive and Kicking"...that's what Wildwood will be this weekend.  In fact the streets are filling with cars as I type.  No lie as during the little pooch's morning walk, I noted how many folk are checked in already...cars everywhere.  On this work holiday for me...slept in just a bit and baked some delicious scones.  My intention is to tackle the clothes hamper and once again filter through the pile of clothes for that ol' suitcase for Key West next week!  Life is good!
