Three-Day Weekend

My company was closed today for the Memorial Day holiday. I regret that I didn't really do anything to recognize the day.

I was in the band in high school, and we used to march in three little parades in our town on Memorial Day. Each "parade" was a procession to a cemetery in town where they would then have a ceremony. Two of our trumpet players would play "Taps"; one first and then the echo.

Lew and I did watch a military-themed movie from the late 1980s tonight: "The Rescue." It is a totally unrealistic story, but it is a movie that I really enjoy. I hadn't seen it for probably 25 years. Lew had never seen it.

I did go see Mom through her window a couple times this weekend. We even took a selfie!
