Memorial *Day* ...It's not a stupid question at all. Memorial *Day* was originally May 30th, to remember fallen soldiers and other deceased loved ones by placing flowers and wreaths on their graves. Many cemeteries have a ceremony at the military monument, and towns have parades down Main Street that include bands and veterans groups marching.<br /><br />At some point the date was changed to the last Monday in May, so that it became a 3-day holiday weekend and the symbolic start of summer. Many families gather at lakes to camp out, swim and water ski.JamaGeniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16973656461323918279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8453775580949648277.post-37450250840701135992009-05-25T15:41:08.411-05:002009-05-25T15:41:08.411-05:00if it's not a stupid question, what is Memorial We...if it's not a stupid question, what is Memorial Weekend?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8453775580949648277.post-9292624867158622412009-05-25T13:48:40.002-05:002009-05-25T13:48:40.002-05:00and... the background is quite eye catching!
