A Holiday for Remembering the War Dead and Just Relaxing
It is downright curious how other dimensions are imposed on holidays that were created for one purpose. Happy birthday to Washington and Lincoln means an orgy of consumerism that the Presidents had never envisioned. Thanksgiving Day is apotheosized in parades, New Years Day in a pile-up of tackles. Memorial Day, which is Monday, has gentler overtones. The holiday has, since its beginnings in the post-bellum mid-1860s, been one that memorialized the war dead, an occasion that gave the holiday another name, Decoration Day, because visitors adorned graves with flowers. But there is another aspect to the day, particularly when it is embodied in a three-day weekend. There is a languid, shoes-off relaxedness that goes with it, a foretoken of summertime, which is officially three weeks off but every year seems to start on Memorial Day.
