Presidents Day

Presidents day is next Monday. Actually it's Washington's birthday. Well some states don't celebrate Lincoln's birthday, so they lump Lincoln's in with Washington's. In Illinois we celebrate Lincoln's birthday on February 12th. I didn't get that day off work! We also get off the first Monday in March for Casimir Pulaski day. Who? Casimir Pulaski, revolutionary war hero. The father of American cavalry.
