You know, it didn't feel like work because that is the sort of thing I really enjoy, and like you said, it isn't work I do every day. =DLeslie https://www.blogger.com/profile/11216448707277968516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095103946834851624.post-3194136714138146552011-09-06T07:21:06.280-06:002011-09-06T07:21:06.280-06:00Love this post Jody!

My favorite jobs were--and are--the jobs where you end up with something to show for your work. I would think ranch and farm work would be very satisfying for that reason.<br /><br />Great art!<br /><br />xofrancesLeft-Handed Housewifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15014518128739580267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095103946834851624.post-5084763947713318132011-09-05T20:43:13.849-06:002011-09-05T20:43:13.849-06:00Yes, Labor Day was always just that; working.

Fourth of July always found us in the peach orchards. Seldom is there a day for farmers to take a break from labor.lil red henhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15494641068959278096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095103946834851624.post-585771126844000332011-09-05T12:44:10.553-06:002011-09-05T12:44:10.553-06:00It's rest... for our minds... knowing that one...It's rest... for our minds... knowing that one of the chores that has been gnawing away at us will finally be checked off THE LIST!!<br /><br />Enjoy your labor...

It has always been that way in my life, it was how my parents did it and now we carry on the tradition. <br />We enjoy it though, because when we go to bed tonight it will be knowing, Summer things will be put away and we will move into fall.<br />Though I know my guys would be thrilled with a gravel truck and all of the machinery. :) <br />Have a lovely day.<br />Loved the images.Farm Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00998621464797636686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095103946834851624.post-55295484029314524182011-09-05T08:42:18.297-06:002011-09-05T08:42:18.297-06:00Happy Labor Day too you as you are all out there l...Happy Labor Day too you as you are all out there laboring still!
