LYME/OLD LYME — Have you realized what the date is today?
It’s been described as the ‘date of the decade’ … it’s a palindrome … and it’s ubiquitous (in the sense it’s the same regardless of whether you write it in the month/day/year form or the format used by most of the rest of the world of day/month/year.)
It’s 2/2/22 — and it’s a Tuesday — hence its new name of ‘Twosday!’
It’s a noteworthy day to be born (not too much choice about that for natural deliveries) and of course, it’s a memorable day to get married.
According to CNN, in Sacramento, Calif., 222 couples will participate in a wedding at the State Capitol. The ceremony starts at 2 p.m. PT and will conclude at precisely 2:22 p.m PT.
So how are you celebrating ‘Twosday?’
Here is an idea for one way to celebrate this special day locally. The Old Lyme Inn is offering a variety of ‘Two-fers’, for example, $22 for a two-course dinner and $2 for a draft beer. There will also be live music and fun galore.
Reservations are suggested. Call (860) 434-2600 or find your table at this link.
Whatever you do, we hope you have a Happy ‘Twosday!’
