Easter weekend

On Thursday I checked out the Art Museum. There is an installation of high school art with info on their inspiration.  There is an installation of photos and costumes of Selena, a Texan and singer who was murdered in 1995. There is also an installation with art about the border. I quite enjoyed it. 

On Friday I went for a walk and encountered a slow procession with police escort. So I turned toward them and found a church procession with Jesus and the cross, singing forgive us, forgive us. 

Saturday was my day off and I got coffee with anither volunteer and then went to a fundraiser for Las Americas, a legal aid organization that works with refugees. Fun music and poetry readings in an outdoor setting. Grabbed dinner with another volunteer and my former house coordinator who has returned to run another of the Annunciation House buildings. Then I jumped in the free street car and rode and listened to a band for a bit. 

Easter morning I went for a walk with Deb on scenic drive which closes to motorized vehicles on Sunday mornings and opens to pedestrians and bikers. It overlooks El Paso for some great views. Deb picks up trash as she walks and it was a lovely slow pace. Made it back to the house in time to fill and hide Easter eggs and boxes for the guests. Then we had a grill out in the parking lot. It was a great time!
