Memorial Monday is the gateway to summer here in N. Michigan.
After services at the cemetary to honor those who`ve passed on, the whole village has a BBQ at the local park. It will be the last time for locals to gather together before the tourists (our bread and butter)pour in to enjoy our beautiful locale & keep us busy from sunup to sundown. It reminds me of a ancient drudic ceremony to honor the village and for a promise of a prosperous summer.
