  Today is part of the Memorial Day Weekend, now when I was growing up Memorial day was always on the 30th of May....regardless of the day of the week on which it fell......but since 1971 it's always on the 4th Monday of May......growing up rural outside Buffalo NY...Memorial day was always the day that we planted the family vegetable garden.....and for 5 years when I was in High School our school band would march in sometimes as many as 3 parades and took part in the cemetery services honoring the veterans who had past......
