In Berkeley, they call it "Indigenous Peoples Day" and revile Christopher Columbus.
We're very PC in Berkeley...hate the white guy. 
OK, just kidding...mostly. But being from Columbus, OH...I don;t really observe "Indigenous Poeples Day." It's funny when at 31 I realize that I am turning into a hidebound old fart.

My aunt got married on a copy of the Santa Maria, which sits on the Olentangy River in Columbus. It was a very nice ceremony and a beautiful locale. DB, oyur pictures reminded me of their wedding...thank you.
