Monday, February 15, is the observance of Presidents' Day. This means that a number of businesses will be closed celebrating Presidents' Day. It also means there probably won't be any mail delivery, the exception of course is e-mail and that arrives in my boxes every day.

There are numerous Presidents' Day sales, plus there are Valentines' Day sales, since Valentines' Day is Sunday, February 14. There are a lot of sales going on in Las Vegas this week, not that I can take advantage of them, but it's nice to know they are occurring because it means the economy is on the upswing.

Since most businesses are closed Monday, to celebrate Presidents' Day, that is a three-day weekend. It's a four day weekend if you happen to work in a government office that's closed on Friday. Just think a four-day holiday an exotic location or just four days out of town in an unexotic location. I would be happy with a day out of town and a picnic basket.
