Considering that winter dragged on for much of America, most people are probably very much looking forward to warmer weather — and luckily, it looks like Memorial Day, often referred to as the unofficial start to summer, will be obliging on May 28. With the weather finally looking like it won't be so teeth-chatteringly cold, Memorial Day is likely going to be a great day to spend outside — and, as a result, you're likely going to want to take a lot of photos to commemorate not only the day, but also the holiday itself with on Instagram. For those photos, you're going to need a patriotic Memorial Day Instagram caption that will really honor the meaning of the holiday in addition to how you're celebrating the day.

Memorial Day is a time to celebrate the start of summer, yes, but it's also also a time to remember the sacrifices our fellow Americans have made while serving in the military. On May 28, take the time to feel thankful for the freedom and life you have — and in your Memorial Day post on social media, include a caption that honors the holiday.
