Re: Memorial Day ~ I simply say "have a nice holiday".

It is both solemn and a celebration too. Yesterday my son and DIL rode the Harley down to D.C. to the "Rolling Thunder" tribute, along with about 60 other bikes and riders. They didn't ride in the actual parade - just wanted to see it - thousand of bikes along a designated route - taking hours for them to all get thru the route - and everyone of the bikes flying the flag. They took some awesome pictures - I was impressed with the whole thing.
