Labor Day 2026

Today, in the United States, we recognize Labor Day.  This is the day that is set aside each year as a day to appreciate all those who work to make our lives better in so many ways.  It is also a legal holiday.

Today also represents the traditional end to the summer season.  Of course, most people think of it only as a day off from work and Labor Day sales at brick and mortar was well as online stores.

Whatever Labor Day means to you, just take a moment to appreciate all those who have worked diligently over the past year to produce all those things that you enjoy using as well as the services you find necessary for you to have a comfortable life.

To all, you have my sincere thanks.

  1. I’m sorry it’s taken so long for me to comment but this image is just magnificent, showing the hard working laborer against the towering clouds. Those clouds evoke the work of one the greatest Southwestern artists, Maynard Dixon. Congratulations!
