To many people, Memorial Day signifies 3-day weekends, BBQs, and drinking beer to kick off the summer. And while those things are very American, that is not what this special holiday is about. Living at the Jersey Shore has always made this holiday even more crazy because it is the first real weekend of the summer and that means lots of parties, bar specials, and people anxiously waiting to break out the shorts and tank tops. It also means the start to the long lines of weekend traffic and tourists. And while Memorial Day weekend brings the start of summer and all these things, I hope it also brings a time for reflection and to think about those who serve our country & have fallen. Take time this weekend to reach out to your loved ones and thank anyone you may know who protects our country.
I have always held a special place in my heart for those who serve and all branches of our military. And so with that I would like to give back, even if in the smallest of ways. I have two Military Appreciation offers as a thank you, and as a way to honor those fallen men & women. Thank you & God Bless!
