A Day to Reflect

Memorial Day is a federal holiday near and dear to many Americans’ hearts. It’s a day of remembrance, a day to honor and respect the men and women who gave their lives while serving in the military and fighting for our freedom. For many of us, the long weekend is a special time to spend with our family and loved ones. Everyone celebrates this day differently.

Looking to move? If you are, you might want to see what you could potentially be getting yourself into first. Because when it comes to laws in the United States, every state is different.
