It is odd. I think here people often say "Happy Memorial Day Weekend" to cover the fact it is a three day weekend without specifically wishing a Happy Memorial Day.
Comments are welcome (and necessary, for good conversation). If you could take the time to be kind and not practice profanity, it would be appreciated. Thanks for posting!
The flags are out on the lawn TB and it's going to be a gray day all day.....juvat left a solid post today.

Very nice post TB ☺ It's weird for me to say Happy Memorial Day because it's not that happy a day is it?
