Memorial Day

Have a good Memorial Day weekend..... as this is a holiday derived from the US War of Northern Agression, originally called Decoration Day, I doubt our folks from other nations will participate. But, I hope you and yours have a safe holiday especially if traveling.

I am going to shoot clays on Saturday and will try to get in a boat trip on Sunday or Monday.
Best to all,
Ed

Have no knowledge of the US War of Northern Agression, originally called Decoration Day.

However, that won't stop me from wishing all a great and relaxing holiday in memory of this conflict.

Enjoy the time with your families.

Cheers, Vince

Just got our little flag from Big Lots that going to go up here in a few minutes. I'm spending the weekend making up tests for my students and visiting my mom in the hospital. Can't afford the gas to go any where else.

Also thanks to all the vets past and present.
