Happy Memorial Weekend Posbang!!
We remember you.
Looking forward to the long weekend.
In honor of Memorial Day,
(Changed the title for TNBlue1977)
Happy Friday and the unofficial start of summer.
Not sure on the exact plans, but my weekend will involve some Founders Doom at one point or another. That is enough to get me excited.
I also plan to take some time to remember those that gave their lives for our country.
I'll be watching the Indy 500 too.
As a kid, I thought the Johnny Lightning Special was the coolest thing that ever existed.
Ms. EM committed me to chauffeur 8 +/- middle school Girl Scouts and pilot a pontoon boat with said Girl Scouts and a couple of other adults tomorrow. A/k/a one of the busiest boating days of the year. She had the sense to ask me to do so a few weeks ago ("the troop leader has never driven a boat"), when the prospect of it actually happening seemed dim. Damn you, moment of weakness!
Last time I drove a pontoon boat? Two years ago. Thoughts and prayers for the dock and the pontoons are appreciated. Local beer sales will skyrocket once I get back home tomorrow night.
Bang me.
I thought it would be pretty funny to post a comment and a pic of Mary X, but every image available was just too disturbing, even for here...
Mrs. X: There's a baby. It's at the hospital.
Mary X: Mom!
Mrs. X: And you're the father.
Henry: Well that's impossible! It's only been...
Mary X: Mother, they're still not sure it is a baby!
Mary X: You wouldn't mind marrying me, would you Henry?
Henry: Well... No.
Such great memories!
If you've not done it before, try to make time to cross the International Bridge and explore a bit of SSM, Ontario. I lived in SSM, MI for a summer, and it took me a month to realize that the Canadian side is absolutely gorgeous, just about two miles inland from the St. Mary's River.
God's Country, that.
has been living/cottaging in Sault Ste. Marie since 1914. Still have a cottage on Sugar Island (considered within the SSM city limits)
Very nice are on both sides of the border.
for over 50 years. Cottage is on Sugar Island so we would pass Clydes on an almost daily basis.
We also used to drive our boat to the island rotary park there when younger every saturday for the month of August.
It's your typical greasy spoon, but the onion rings & shakes in particular are good.
I'm old enough to remember when it was commonly called Decoration Day. Haven't heard that in a while.
My Grandma always called it Decoration day. I never understood why, until I found out that is what it was originally called.
on her Davenport?
Yep....And she always called hot dogs...weiners.
you're a credit union leader?
Supply chain.
Have as much fun as this guy!
They must have played "Finna Get Loose".
Your not at home ya know.
Enjoy the weekend everybody.
Happy Memorial Day to All
Username checks out.
I do plan on having fun and enjoying our freedoms this weekend (leaving work early, family, friends, food, etc) and am grateful for those who paid for that freedom with all they had.
It’s the 120th anniversary of the first publication of Bram Stoker’s novel "Dracula," but who’s COUNTing? Now, whatever happened to my "Transylvania Twist?"
Why does the battery run low only at like 4:00 AM??
And when exactly did we run out of 9V batteries!?
Great way to start off the weekend....good morning, everyone!
Heading to Chicago for the weekend for the food and the sights. It'll be my daughter's first trip so we'll be doing the tourist stuff.
A bit different than when I lived on the North Side post college.
Happy Memorial Day weekend to you all...
I N D Y 500 !!! Human Beings need traditions. This race is one of mine. Hey, if you're looking for a new Tradition of your own, or for your family to remember & to treasure, this is a good one :)
I am actualy currently at work, but only for a couple hours to take care of some items and be on one hopefully brief conference call. After that's all finished, it is off to get some wine and supplies, off to get my new glasses and then off through Tuesday. Although I always tell people I am available by phone, that doesn't always mean I answer it right away....or indeed at all depending on who it is.
Hoping to have a nice, relaxing extended weekend.
remembering all the heroes that gave their lives protecting this great nation!
Wife is a teacher, and her last day with the students is today. Celebrating tonight with a bottle or two of wine, driving down to FL over the weekend to see the family for a couple of days, and then off to Europe for two weeks for our honeymoon. Next Wednesday can't get here soon enough!
the brave men and women who have served and are currently serving in our armed forces, so I may enjoy a beautiful and relaxing weekend with my family.
Not just any long weekend it's Memorial weekend. I will make mention of the hero's who fought and died in wars at the dinner tables grace tonight in part so we could enjoy these weekend postbangs but mainly our way of life. God bless all our heros and their families who sacraficed more than I would dare to imagine.
wishing all fellow MGoBloggers a good Memorial Day weekend.
because my wife got elected to the school board in April, so she has to spend Sunday handing out diplomas at 3 high school graduation ceremonies. I had enough trouble sitting through my son and daughter's ceremonies, let alone three long ceremonies, given there are roughly 1000 students in each graduating class. Gives me time to watch the Indy 500 in peace, but I'd rather be at the lake house for the weekend.
I need a bang. Missing my chance to hang at the beach, pull the boat out of the garage, and get things running for the summer season. I can always drink beer here instead of there!
...as you formulate plans to annex it
