Fresh sweet corn on the cob dripping with melted butter, juicy ripe, red watermelon and crisp summer vegetables can all combine for memorable Memorial Day weekend feasts.
The long weekend from Friday through Monday kicks off the summer season, the Atlantic hurricane season on June 1, and the 97th Indianapolis 500 race on May 26.
It is also the time to honor military veterans of all wars at services throughout Citrus County.
