A day off…from meters

This may be the only state named for a president, but President's Day is sort of a second-tier holiday.

Banks are closed, many government offices are open, and some stores will try to capitalize on it by putting Washington or Lincoln's mug on their closeout ads.

But the City of Spokane is offering something for the average folks:

A PARKING METER HOLIDAY.

No need to slip coins into the meters next Monday.

Sounds like change you can believe in.
