There was no “July 4th weekend” this year. July 4th was on a Tuesday this year, that not a part of the weekend nor is it a day connected to the weekend, so no, there was no long weekend. The weekend isn’t over half the week long. There was, just as there is three out of every seven years, a July 4th in the middle of the week which ordinary working people like myself probably got off. But not the Monday before it which wasn’t any holiday. Only elitist snobs and the rich took the whole damn week or most of it off. The rest of us work for a living.
