Memorial Day Weekend Recap
Hello all and Happy Memorial Day! I hope many of you are enjoying an extra day off today. We are blessed to have a super unseasonably cool weekend upon us to actually enjoy. (Well, for someone like me!) When you have to wear a jacket on walks, I say it's a victory given how many Memorial Days we've spent drenched in flop sweat.
