Columbus Day

[Joker]

Taking the day off over here. Trying to extend the weekend as long as possible.

Schools are no longer closed on Columbus Day!

In Kalifornia, Hawaii and Nevada. Pretty sure they are closed in other states. It is still a "national holiday"

South Dakota celebrates today as "Native Americans Day" and in Berkley (downdown Moscow, Kalifornia) it is celebrated as "Indigenous People's Day"

I've decided to take the day off

From the looks of things, you had a strenuous weekend. You deserve it.

Monday thru Friday are holidays for me, the other two are just weekend.

Federal chartered banks are closed, state chartered banks are open(in kalifornia)

Actually that doesn't really matter. They can be open if they want to for service purposes but nothing will clear overnight. Large banks that have a large check cashing presence such as Wells, BofA and Chase will often be open on Holidays for transaction purposes although nothing will truly be processed.

Nothing can clear as long as the Fed is closed.

Which means exactly what you said. The doors are open "for service", but banking is in effect closed.

When the papa bank is closed, the "system" is shut down.
