MEMORIAL DAY

Memorial Day weekend.

Monday May 31, Runnion Equipment Company, of course, is closed for business.

This is the first long weekend of the summer season - (although summer doesn't officially begin until June 21). We'll have some time to spend outside doing some yardwork, relaxing, checking out the antique car shows... and deciding which of my grills to use:













OLD RELIABLE




More importantly, do you recall why we have the day off?
Do you remember what it is about?










Will you take some time out of your weekend to say "Thanks"?



If you don't know any Veterans or active service people, DO something in keeping with the spirit of the day of rememberance. Take your kids to one of the Veteran's services taking place in your neighborhood, take a minute to write a check to one of the Veteran's organizations or the USO, fly the flag - say a silent prayer.


I started the day out right... the Korean War Vet in front of me at Dunkin Donuts let me buy!
