Memorial Day Weekend. We can’t believe it either. These months are flying by. Do you have plans figured out? Don’t forget Costco is closed on Memorial Day. There are opportunities to observe the national day like a Commemoration Ceremony at the Tallahassee National Cemetery on Sun., May 26th. There will also be plenty of entertainment. Tal Dem has Top 5 Things to Do. Don’t feel like going out? If you’re into war movies, may we suggest watching Band of Brothers, The Pacific on Netflix and catch the 3rd mini-series, Masters of the Air on Apple TV+. Throw in Oppenheimer, you may get a glimpse of what it was like back then.
