Labor Day is the first Monday of September. School children
think of this day as a free day away from school, the teachers, and the
beginning of an ever-flowing amount of homework and school tasks. Many adults
find the same comfort in Labor Day- that is, a day away from the work
environment and a long weekend to spend with family and friends before the
crisp breeze of fall blows in. What I remember most about Labor Day was that
the pools were closing for the summer, homework was getting heavier, and the
air was becoming cooler. Admittedly, I never really knew what Labor Day was
about, at least not in any kind of historical context. So, this morning I
decided to really “discover” what Labor Day actually is.
Labor Day came about as a day of dedication and remembrance
to the bygone days of the American labor movements and the great achievements
of American workers. While it is relatively unknown who actually proposed this
great day, its purpose is far from. Labor Day is a day for reflection on the
contributions by great American workers, past and present, who continue to make
the United States a flourishing nation. Well, that is certainly
something to think about!
So, this weekend, go out and enjoy that extra day off. Spend
the weekend at the pool, camping, or at the lake before the cool days of fall
take you by surprise. Like many other stores, Renogy is offering a sale, 5% off
