A three day holiday and the banks are closed. I remember growing up and the only time we had a three day holiday occurred when the 4th of July or Christmas fell on a Monday. Grandpa worked at a Zinc smelter so he got the 4th of July and Christmas off. Those are the holidays I remember because those are the days all the family were together.
I always liked having spring holidays fall on Monday because we always went to either Lake Blackwell or Lake Carl Blackwell. The entire extended family would go. We took three or four cars loaded with food and people. Winter holidays we stayed home and grandma made pies. My grandmother liked to cook, she always made pies for any holiday whether it was a spring, summer, autumn or winter holiday.
