After more than 14 months of life torn asunder by the pandemic, the holiday weekend brought no small measure of relief as Californians cautiously resumed doing the things they normally do, starting with barbecues and trips to the beach.
California now logs one of the lowest COVID-19 case rates of any state in the country, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Statewide, 1,057 people were hospitalized Monday with confirmed cases, a 23% drop from two weeks ago, according to data compiled by The Times.
Crowds pack the Santa Monica State Beach on Memorial Day as many people are eager to get out as the COVID-19 pandemic wanes.

Many people will celebrate a day off tomorrow with barbecues and get-togethers. But for many, Memorial Day is not an excuse to party, it s a time for reflection and remembrance of those who aren t here to share any longer.
Here s a collection of Memorial Day events scheduled for tomorrow in Acadiana, by parish. If you don t see your event here, and you d like it to be included, just send the information to news@katctv.com

Since Friday, there has been a memorial display set up at the Church Point Depot. From sunrise to sunset every day, the 21 Church Point men who died serving their country are honored by VFW Post 9903 and American Legion Post 225 with a display. Every hour, a slow sentry will patrol the grounds. You can see the story we did on this event here. The closing ceremony will be at 6 p.m. on Monday, Memorial Day.
