Memorial Day weekend is right around the corner!
It’s About Time for Summer to Start Again
Memorial Day is annually observed on the last Monday in May. This year, the holiday falls on May 30th. As a day of remembrance, Memorial Day honors those who have served in the military. Since Memorial Day is a federal holiday, we can also look forward to a 3-day weekend!
Memorial Day Weekend is popular with travel, so airports might be crowded. And, don’t even get us started on the traffic. However, it can be nice to stay in Baltimore for the long weekend.
Anything Is Possible This Weekend
