I'm hoping to take it easy this long weekend, save a little household puttering (the floors are sticky and the weeds abound), but here a few leads for Memorial Day fun that are worth considering. If your kid loves tricks as much as Laurel does, head to the Faneuil Hall Street Performer Festival Extravaganza. Boston Central has a running list of Memorial Day parades in Massachusetts (you'll just need to dig up the route if your town is hosting one). And then there's the Memorial Day picnic I'm co-hosting on Monday in Boston. Check out the details and feel free to RSVP at the Facebook event page -- I'd love to see you there! (And don't forget to bring donations for Room to Grow and Women's Lunch Place!)
