What are you doing for Memorial Day?

I'm thinking of packing a picnic lunch and having a picnic in the back yard. Not going anywhere because I think the roads will be crazy but want to do something.

DH wants to hit the sidewalk sale at Harbor Freight...

Going to care for the horses in the morning, then go to work, then come home. Not really planning on doing much of anything since hubby isn't feeling the greatest. Plus, it's supposed to be hot.

DS is in a youth organization Young Marines. The last few evenings have been spent decorating veteran's grave sites. Tomorrow is a huge event at the Western Reserve National Cemetery in Rittman. Monday is a parade.

Lucky you! I always thank any vets I see, as well as any active service people. I hate that people who don't support the war take it out on the military. They're just doing their job, and don't get the support they should, IMO.
