#1 Golf courses looked busy out my way on Monday.

As was the bike path, the parks, the baseball diamond and a lot of back yards.

I don't fault the man for playing golf on Memorial Day. A lot of people do it. He did go to Arlington and pay his respects; that was mandatory and (by the news accounts) he did it properly. That's all I'll ask a president to do.
