It's Labor Day in the US, the traditional end of summer for me as a kid growing up in Virginia. This was the last day of summer before school started for me. It was also the day when many of the seasonal businesses closed in Virginia Beach.

It's not quite the end of summer for me, but it is a day of Labor. Travel and a strange weather pattern this summer have me behind on ranch chores, plus, the ranch manager AKA my daughter, is on vacation. Today I'll handle the horse chores and then start fixing, building, and more today. There is always plenty to do, and as my daughter has taken over much of the day-to-day ranch management, she continuously sends me a list of things that need repairing. She's happy to help, but I have to go over how to accomplish some tasks that she's never done.

Hopefully it's a quiet day for those of you working in technology, with no outages or security incidents and you can start the week slowly.

For those in the US, hopefully you have a great day off and enjoy a break from your labors.
