I’m looking forward to this Easter weekend as it’s a time for our family and friends to gather in celebration, reflection and love.

Family Traditions

We Capparelle’s have long carried our family traditions throughout the generations and this Easter will be no different.  We’ll eat no meat today nor have we partaken of any during the Fridays in Lent.

My wife Ann is busy planning for the buffet feast she will prepare for Sunday after services.  There will be the traditional egg dish.  Egg symbolizes Easter as a new beginning and when Grandma used to bake the fresh bread, she would always have an egg nesting in the center of the loaf.

All seven members of our immediate family will be at our home along with cousins, grandchildren’s boyfriends, and longtime friends.

Even before St. Patrick’s Day has arrived, we’re hearing sad news about people who drank too much, turning festive celebrations into tragedies.

This is going to be a great weekend with warm, clear sunny skies (finally!) and the Good Guys Spring Nationals Car Show at Westworld in Scottsdale.

I enjoy the Good Guys show events immensely.  These weekend happenings are really a big party in honor of those of us who love the automobile hobby.  There’ll be street rods, classic cars, antiques, muscle cars as well as a mind-boggling assortment of vendors and a swap meet for those enthusiasts looking for their dream car project.

Only cars built from 1972 and earlier are allowed into the show, and with the nearly 4,000 cars anticipated to be on-site there’ll be a multiple of sights, sounds, and smells to take in.  The artistic lines of the different models are masterfully crafted while the mingling of the leather,exhausts and oil smells are ever present with various motor pitches.
