One of our favorite traditions in the Greg "Splashin'" McShea household on the Friday after Thanksgiving is the Clinton Shoppers Stroll. This year, the village of Clinton has scheduled events throughout the weekend.
Every year, the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade is always on the kitchen TV in the Greg "Splashin' McShea household. For baby boomers like me, that parade is a must on Thanksgiving morning, and for our kids generation, many of them have grown up with it too.
Today is Memorial Day, a time to reflect and pay tribute to those who gave their lives for our country. There are a number of local memorial services and remembrances, as well as parades being held today.
