Labor Day is a creation of the labor movement and is dedicated to the social and economic achievements of American workers. It constitutes a yearly national tribute to the contributions workers have made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of our country.

Traditionally, Labor Day is celebrated by most Americans as the symbolic end of the summer. The holiday is often regarded as a day of rest and parties.

ReplyDeleteWe had a great weekend, but no parades. As for the running. I tried and my knee has put its foot down. I fell at the beginning of August. Actually hurtled full force onto my knees before our holiday. It wasn't pretty. Funny... after everyone realized I wasn't dead. But I am going to have to downgrade to walking. I've always had "bad knees" partly due to genetics and then a skiing fall that was a doozy. Anyway. Just wanted to let you know.
