It's Memorial Day, the first holiday weekend of the year, and I intend to take advantage of every moment of it.
I will, of course, attend a Memorial Day service to honor our fallen veterans. My father was a proud World War II survivor, and the American Legion tribute at his funeral brought tears to my eyes. We owe such a debt of gratitude to all our military troops, and I hope everyone else takes a moment to remember what this holiday is all about, too.
Also on my agenda is the U.S. 23 Yard Sale. For the second year, my son and I are taking our, uh, bestest used stuff to sell to people who roll in to find bargain. We made some good money last year, but most of all, we had fun! It's great not only to hang out with him, but to meet some many other vendors and sellers. Good times, good times.
I'm sure a picnic will come along somewhere, and I'll be slaving away at the keyboard for a little time, since I'm coming up on the deadline for my third Shadow Ancient book, "Devil's Ball."
How will be spending your time?
