Labor Day for hardworking Americans

Happy Labor Day! Today is the day to actually be proud that you are a working American.  As hard as most of us work throughout the entire year and sacrifice all that we give to companies, factories, restaurants, small businesses, schools, government jobs, and jobs that require most of our day and nights, Labor Day is a day to celebrate all that we give to provide for our families, our self, and our country.

Labor Day, which was established more than 100 years ago, falls on the first Monday in September.  It's a creation of the labor movement and is dedicated to the social and economic achievements of all hard working Americans nationwide. It constitutes a yearly national tribute to the contributions American workers have made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of our country; the great United States.

Regular blogging for SNORTH will pick back up on Tuesday.  Enjoy the day today!  :-)

Blueberry picking

This past weekend we took advantage of the sunny weather and went to pick a few bags of blueberries.  We took a walk through the local water shed too in Waterloo, Oregon and the weather was wonderful.
