Memorial Day Weekend

Always welcome a 3 day weekend!  This holiday marks the beginning of the summer season which reminds me of swimming outside, bbq, street festivals, baseball games, picnics, going to the beach, eating lots of ice cream, air conditioning at the movies, sweat in places you don't want to talk about, fireworks, fresh fruits and veggies, weekend get away, and spending time with friends and family.  But its also a weekend to remember.  I never really knew the history of the day and decided to read about it.  I remember all those who have come into my life and are no longer with me. Their spirit is always with me and gives me peace so I appreciate all I have and just enjoy it.
