May Day! May Day! May Day!

As a kid I used to think the idea of dancing around a Maypole was a hoot.

May Day! How are you spending it?

It's pouring rain where I live so yard work is out. I think I'll go to a few places and return stuff that's been sitting around needing to be returned. Real exciting huh? Anyway, since it's raining, no dancing around a Maypole here!

I was fortunate to have been chosen as a Maypole dancer for my county when I was a kid. I loved it, in part because I missed a day of school. Now May 1 has a more special meaning. It's my beagle's birthday. HAPPY 7th BIRTHDAY, MADDIE!

@beckyb1012 Here in MN it is 37 degrees this morning, and ice pellets were hitting the windows last night, high today is a balmy 40 degrees, but keeping our fingers crossed high's in the 60's this weekend!

I never thought about May Day until we were in Paris on May 1 about 10 years ago. When we went to the lobby in the a.m. we were presented with a tiny bouquet of flowers.

When we went to the Eiffel Tower that day, we found a 'zillion' people waiting in line. It is a big holiday in Paris I learned.

I love watching May Day celebrations. When I was in school we didn’t celebrate it. However, I worked for a school that did. It was always fun watching the children dress up in their finery and dance around the Maypole. I always looked forward to it each year.

As far as our weather, it’s actually perfect May Day weather - partly cloudy and breezy, not too hot (about 72 degrees). It’s a good day for outdoor activities, which is where I'm going to spend the day.
