Uncle Ed's Holiday Reports Part 4: Valentine's Day
Happy Valentine's Day to everyone who reads my blog posts.. Now for those who are not in the know Valentine's Day started when a priest, St. Valentine, married couples on the 14th day of February during the days of the Roman Empire. The emperor wanted men not to get married so they will be more willing to join the army so he outlawed marriages. Well St. Valentine married couples in secret and this is how the day got started. Or at least that is what i heard or read somewhere. I don't remember where it was but I heard or read this once and it just stuck to my mind and I decided to share it with my readers. Well that is all for this installment of my Holiday Reports. The last part of the series will come in April when I talk about Easter. Until then.
