101 Critical Days of Summer!

Here it is already, Memorial Day Weekend. As we venture out either by car, bus, motorcycle, plane, bikes, or even walking, be careful.

When I was in the Air Force, they would send out info on how the 101 Days of Summer (Memorial Day thru Labor Day) there was an increase of accidents. Just like at some high schools do during Prom, my base would always put a static display by the main exit of an automobile accident where someone lost their life.

It was to show how critical it is to pay attention to what you are doing, especially to those around you. Even though you may not be the driver, be sure you have a designated driver if you plan on drinking.

Be sure to watch out for motorcycles, and obey the posted speed limits. These limits are there for our own safety, whether we think they're outdated or a nuisance.

Most of all, have fun, but be safe!
