[QUOTE="This Ain't Chopped Liver, post: 3287364, member: 74137"] Memorial Day weekend when I was kid was more reverent with grandparents and great-grandparents around that lived through the Wars. There was that two-pronged living connection. We were close enough for some of us to gather and it was tradition to visit the cemetery and honor all whom had passed, not just in military service. A fond family gathering memory. We followed that with a backyard picnic; a picnic table, webbed aluminum lawn chairs, grilled hamburgers, hot dogs, baked beans and noodle salad. And badminton. In the north country, Memorial Day weekend marked the beginning of summer, so celebratory too after a cold winter and sloppy wet spring. “Some of us have great stories, pretty stories that take place at lakes, with boats, and friends, and noodle salad…. A lot of people, that's their story; good times, noodle salad.” P.S. The folding lawn chairs were used often enough that the webbing would wear out and you then bought new webbing to re-web them, in a different color(s) of course.
