I moved here from the Midwest in 1971. Our first Easter here must have been earlier then this year. The ski mountains were still open. My dad was asked to play the guitar for the sunrise service at Black Mountain. Being from the Midwest, we did not ski. The skiers were at the top of the mountain. When the sunlight hit the top of the mountain, the skiers skied down to meet us at the base. It was so cold, my dad couldn't feel the guitar strings. We all just sang the joy of the day.
