If you’re heading anywhere for the long weekend, I wish you good weather and very little traffic. I’m going to Rhode Island where the forecast is looking pretty gloomy, but that won’t deter me from from christening the start of summer with at least one ice cream cone—even if I have to eat it shivering in a hoodie.
