Friends in Los Angeles, you'll get a kick out of this. Ever wondered what people in Connecticut do on Memorial Day? (It's been keeping you up nights, hasn't it?) Turns out, half the town gathers "downtown," -- and I'm using that term loosely -- to watch the other half march in a low-key parade. Everyone puts on their madras shorts, brings their coffee and their labrador. (Not us, of course, 'cause we don't have a dog.) It's a prep-fest. Good, old-fashioned fun.
Most amusingly, one group dresses up like early American settlers and plays their little Colonial instruments. I think that proves once and for all that no one rocks Memorial Day like New Englanders. Party on!

The excitement of life in Connecticut must be overwhelming at times.... ;-)
