Presidents' Weekend

Good ol' President's Day. Yet another shining example of a holiday that was shoved up against a weekend just so people could have more consecutive days off.

Case and point: My school district decided to make this last Friday a no school day, just so all those ski bums could use this resulting 4-day weekend to beat the world record for "Most Consecutive Hours Spent Skiing". I will admit to being part of the problem. On Saturday all the youth in our ward went up to Mt. Baker (3 hours away) just so they could sled on top of 10 solid feet of snow for a couple hours.

As for President's Day, the only celebratory thing I've done today was eat some nice pie. Cherry pie.

Dude...Mount Baker was only a little over 2 hours away. It just seemed like 3.
