As most Minnesotans believe, Memorial Day weekend is the official start of summer. So why not make it the best that you can? Here, at Waterfront Restoration, we’re ready to help! We’ve created the top 5 ways on how to make the most out of your Memorial Day weekend:
(1) Honor the Military Men and Women
This goes without saying, but we’re saying it anyways! Thank and show respect for veterans who have sacrificed so much. You can do this by writing a letter or calling someone, visiting cemeteries, or even going to a Memorial Day Parade. It will truly make their day and remind you the reason for this holiday.
(2) Find a Lake
(2) Find a LakeI bet you saw this one coming, especially from us. Whether it’s your own lake, or a friend’s, get out there! There’s even over 10,000 you can choose from. We may be bias, but there’s nothing better than spending time jumping in lakes, swimming in lakes, fishing in lakes, boating on lakes, basically ANYTHING on lakes!
(3) Time to Break Out the Grill Again
To all the dads and avid grillers out there-your favorite season has arrived-grilling season! It’s time to break out the grill again this weekend and have a real American BBQ. Whether it’s smelling a freshly cooked hot dog, hamburger, or even a veggie burger, no smell fills the air better. We also recommend adding some watermelon, potato chips, and lemonade to the menu- don’t forget the dessert.
(4) Soak Up the Sun and Warm Weather
In Minnesota, we are known for always checking our weather apps to see what the weather is going to be over the weekend. Whether it’s this weekend or next weekend, we are always either desperately hoping it stays the same, or begging every minute for it to change. We think it’s safe to say we aren’t jinxing it now, so… did you see the weather predictions? Every day in the 90s? Yes, please! So take advantage and spend time outside and in the sun, even if there may be a little rain in the forecast.
(5) Relaxation Declaration
We are declaring relaxation as a necessity because it is the perfect time! You’ve been working nonstop all week and now you can relax. You can also relax because next week you only have a 4-day week. Don’t think about work or school-save that for Tuesday morning. Just focus on spending time with your friends, family, and loved ones. We can guarantee, you won’t regret it!
