You call this a holiday?

So it's Patriot's Day here... Or as it's more commonly known "Marathon Monday"... and what a strange little holiday it is. No school for the kids, half my office building was empty. No garbage pickup in my town, and yet we got mail. Like I said - strange.

It got up to 86 degrees today and sunny for the 108 running of the Boston Marathon - which is unseasonably warm for mid April. Usually it is cold and raining.
