OldRebel what a GREAT idea!.......And NO to the person who said it's a yankee holiday forced on the south. That was such an immature comment!!

Most Southern states considered May 30 a Yankee holiday and kept separate Confederate memorial days. Northern Democrats, whose ranks had harbored many opponents of Lincoln's war policies, accused the G.A.R. of using Memorial Day for partisan purposes. These disputes were partly responsible for the Senate defeat in 1876 of a bill to make May 30 a national holiday.

LOL @ rabid!

Cary must love it then . . .

"it is a yankee holiday forced on the south."

Really? Never heard that one.

morning, bones - now don't start peing off the yanks (less you're looking for something to spice up the boards this morning!) hehe

it is a yankee holiday forced on the south.

Take time to find a Veterans grave somewhere that's in need of some attention. Those few minutes you spend sprucing it up and perhaps leaving a small American flag will do your inner self a world of good. And others just may see it and you could start a tradition for your area.

I have memorial day off...we will probably be going down to fort Bragg. Also, my mom and sister and her new boy toy are coming up from Florida for the weekend!!!

of course, I always remember them
