As I sit here writing my article, I can take a sigh of relief because tomorrow is a holiday and I don't have to get up early. I don't know that I've ever thought too much about Presidents' Day in the past, because I always had to work. But banks are closed, so this is my second year to get the day off.

Today is Presidents' Day and many of you have the day off from work; good for you! I know that back when Gene worked for the railroad they were given eleven paid holidays and he looked forward to each one.
