Today’ is Presidents’ Day. Confused? No, it has absolutely nothing to do with the Hatfield and McCoy feud (aka the present U.S. two political parties mud wrestling).
So, how does this day impact locals? Here goes:
- The U.S. Postal Service is closed including deliveries. On the other hand, UPS will make all regular services available.
- Most banks are shuttered but Wells Fargo banks are open. Be safe and check with your branches before heading out.
- The stock and financial markets aren’t open.
- DISD schools are closed.
- Public libraries will be closed.
- MySweetCharity and DART light rail and buses and Trinity Railway Express are open for business, as well as the George W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum. But you just knew that.
BTW, if you know a president, give them a hug/kiss. If you’re a president, take the day off.
