I hope everyone is enjoying the day off (those who were able to). Just remember when you are digging into your third scoop of potato salad and washing it down with another Miller Chill, you take a few moments and remember those who lost their lives for this country. This day isn’t just about a long weekend or your neighborhood pool opening up.

Regardless how you feel about the current situation in the Middle East, what you can not deny is the courage and dedication of our troops. They have all made sacrifices so that you and I can enjoy our lives, so please take a moment and remember them.
