Friday, September 1, 2023 Mostly Sunny Breezy Warm 84 Degrees 5:15 p.m.
Another beautiful day here in Oak Ridge Tennessee. the beginning of a long weekend, of football, and the last hurrah of summer. The beaches are crowded, if they aren’t recovering from major storms. the highways and byways are crowded, the skies are filled with air planes going to many destinations, and people staying home are busy preparing for their festivities. Picnics, ball games, festivals, and back yard BBQ’s. The joys of Labor Day Weekend.
Back in the day, the Tuesday after Labor Day school started. The holiday weekend was fun but going back to school, going to bed early and getting up early wasn’t so much fun. The lazy, hazy days of summer were over and the anticipation of a new school year, of meeting new children and people, of homework and new classes. That was both exciting and scary. Ah, the good ole’ days.
Quote of the day: ” Singing lifts our spirits. It’s just plane good for us. Whether we sing with trained voices that bring thundering applause or off-key screeching, by the time our songs of praise reach heaven they;er all equally beautiful.” My calendar
Have a great, safe, healthy, exciting, adventurous and fun holiday weekend. Enjoy good weather, good food, good shopping, and good company, be it just one or two people or lots of friends and family. Be kind and be caring. Happy Labor Day!
Blessings
