April 12 On this date in 1861, the Civil War began. This war is also referred to as "The War Between the States", "The War of Rebellion", or "The War for Southern Independence."
The war lasted until May 26, 1865, when the last Confederate army surrendered. The war took more than 600,000 lives, destroyed property valued at 5 billion dollars, brought freedom to 4 million enslaved Blacks, and opened wounds that have not yet completely healed.

Easter Sunday. Up 8 AM!! Going to a church service and out to a brunch.
