The Labor Day Weekend

The days are getting shorter and the first week of school is done.  It’s won’t be long before the leaves turn gold and red and them become so much litter.

Though we all know Summer has a few more weeks to it as the world tilts, but, tilt be damned, we have created this day in September, Labor Day. 

It was originally designed to celebrate the working man and later woman.  Now it is seen more of seasonal marker.

The fun is over, the business begins. At least in the US of A.
