It’s March 14, called Pi Day in honor of pi’s approximation: 3.14… Last year, Mark and I celebrated at the Pi Bar:<\/p>\n\n\n

Bob and oldest son, Mark, at the Pi Bar, March 14, 2023<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you look closely, you can see Mark’s pi cuff link. We were going to repeat the tradition this year, but there’s a small oops. As I write this, just after lunch on Wednesday, snow is predicted:<\/p>\n\n\n

They’ve scaled the prediction back a bit: yesterday I saw as high as 22 inches predicted on this Weather Channel app. Other models show up to three feet where I live. I’ll let you know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the meantime, stay warm and enjoy pi and some pie! Reminds me of the story of the old farmer who asked his son what he was learning in college. The boy thought for a minute and said, “Pi r-squared.” (The formula for the area of a circle with radius r.) The farmer replied, “Well ain’t that the stupidest thing! Pie are round. Cornbread are square.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have a good day!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the day that the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it. (Psalm 118.24, ESV)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

PS For once the weather guessers underestimated. We had 18 inches of snow by 10a, Thursday morning. It’s not expected to quit until Friday morning. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
