President's Day, remember when

We used to have good presidents, or at least successful presidencies?
It used to be, in California at least, that there would be a holiday for George Washington and one for Abraham Lincoln, on their birthdays (being days off as a child, February 12 and 22 are firmly imprinted in my brain). I guess Lincoln's birthday was never a federal holiday, but many states made it a holiday. Is that still the case for the California slackers (almost as bad as Australia there), or is the Golden State down to one day off for the presidents?
