Memorial Day Weekend is the kick-off for summer! It is also a day to remember all the people who have served, and are serving, in the armed forces; our surviving veterans; and to honor those who have died in past wars. Thanks, guys! Wikipedia's description of this day, Memorial Day is a United States federal holiday observed on the last Monday of May (May 28th in 2018). Formerly known as Decoration Day, it commemorates U.S. women and men who died while in the military service. First enacted to honor Union soldiers of the American Civil War (it is celebrated near the day of reunification after the Civil War), it was expanded after World War I.
Summer also means backyard barbecues, parties, the beach and vacations! We are experiencing some cloudy and cool weather here in Los Angeles right now. We call it "May Gray," which leads to "June Gloom." Eventually, we'll have plenty of sunshine. Savor the coolness while it's here!

My local ukulele group, The CC Strummers are having their annual Memorial Day Potluck on Sunday. It's always fun, full of great food selections and excellent conversation! We are also holding an Open Mic with about 10 participants. Ukulele has changed my life! I hope you also have a fun weekend planned. Try to stay out of traffic and just enjoy your current surroundings. There's a lot to be said for a home-grown holiday!
