Weekend Inspiration: Memorial Day

What are you doing over this long Memorial Day weekend? I'm driving home to see my family in Florida. It's always such a treat to be home. I anticipate lots of sun and family time. Memorial Day will be spent driving back to South Carolina , so you'll have to have extra fun for me. This weekend inspiration is devoted to great ways and ideas to celebrate and remember.
