We should guard their graves with sacred vigilance . . . Let pleasant paths invite the comings and goings of reverent visitors and fond mourners. Let no neglect, no ravages of time, testify to the present or to the coming generation that we have forgotten as a people the cost of a free and undivided country.
Maj. Gen. John A. Logan – 1868

National Maritime Day is a United States holiday created to recognize the maritime industry. It is observed on May 22, the date that the American steamship Savannah set sail from Savannah, Georgia on the first ever transoceanic voyage under steam power. The holiday was created by the United States Congress on May 20, 1933. – Wikipedia

This morning I got up – took a shower – got dressed – packed a lunch – had plenty of time to get a cup of coffee and a croissant – and yet I arrived at work late. Normally it is a 15 minute drive to work – with traffic and bad timing it takes 20 minutes. However today it took almost an hour. My regular route was backed up, my alternate route was backed up, every road was backed up. There were barricades and police cars blocking roads along the way. Terrible accident? Presidential visit?
No, they are shooting a movie. I think it is Draft Day with Kevin Costner and Jennifer Garner. The movie industry in Cleveland is small enough that it is a big deal (Christmas Story) when area neighborhoods (Welcome to Collinwood) appear on screen (American Splendor) – and sometimes surprising (Spiderman). Here according to About.com are the top 10 movies filmed in Cleveland.
(I could not find an image for Draft Day, but here is Kevin Costner with an Emmy for something.)
I should get to the movies more often.
