IMHO, Columbus day is only a holiday for some people. For those of Native American decent, it is merely a "celebratory" reminder of the beginning of a painful chapter in their history.

I'm so out of it. I thought I had to work when I have the day off. Just sitting indoors until it gets a little cooler. Hope everyone has a good one.

You said it a little more bluntly than me, but I pretty much agree.

Columbus Day Fun-Fact:

Despite what you may have been taught in grade school, Columbus was NOT the first person to say the earth was round. The idea was widely accepted long before Columbus was even a twinkle in his parents' eyes. The idea that he set out to prove that the earth was round came from some 19th century novel.
