vamysteryfanSeems somehow inappropriate to wish people a happy Memorial Day. But there it is.
The weather's been chilly but clear so it should be nice for the Rolling Thunder bikers. It's grown every year and they are estimating up to 900,000 bikers this year and more than 1.5 million spectators. They've been zooming around the city a couple of days. Today there's a steady faroff rumble that will last for a while, as it takes a couple of hours for them to cross Memorial Bridge. Tonight is the Memorial Day Concert hosted by Gary Sinise and Joe Mantegna. I'll likely watch it on PBS.
Tonight is also supposed to be the planetary alignment with Jupiter, Venus and Mercury. Sister 9 and I plan to look for a spot with enough open space to see it, if the weather stays clear.
