Memorial Day

May 29, 2006 - Today was my first Memorial Day. I guess this is a day to remember people and things. I don't have that much to remember so it was just another day to me. In Alton there is a parade. Basically it is a whole bunch of people sitting on the side of the road watching other people drive or walk by. Everyone waves at each other. Some throw candy at you and some are loud. However loud they were didn't really matter to me. I slept through it. I am sure I will have many more opportunities to see a people drive slowly down the street.
