It’s Memorial Day weekend at the Jersey shore and my brother’s been doing push-ups for the past 48 hours straight.

It’s here and we’re ready.

Beaters have been bleached, pressed and packed. 18k gold-plated chains have been re-plated, polished and packed.

Extra-dark tanning oil? That’s been put into a separate zip lock plastic bag to keep it, and last year’s sand still stuck on the bottle, from leaking onto our beaters.

The car’s polished, packed and has a full tank of $2.98/gal regulated unleaded gas.

We’re all set. Enjoy your weekend.
