: Hi Rich,
: I may be wrong but I seem to remember that the reason the two presidents' days were lumped into one was to allow for the new Martin Luther King day (but to NOT allow for one extra holiday). That's not a bad thing, I hope.

Not per se, Chauncey ... er, Sarah. It's like I said, Washington & Lincoln, in my opinion - shared by many - were two of the GREATEST Americans in our short history. They deserve to be honored, by name, as they had been. Martin Luther King, Jr. is not in the same category ... very few are.

What the heck ...

Sorry to hear your Gathering news, but my "sixth" sense had told me that long ago ... will miss you & the Major!
