Labor Day etc.

Chilling out, not laboring is the only way to celebrate Labor Day! I do that lots of days but I think Thirtysomething and Son #2 haven't quite realized that yet. They are spending a lot of their time off cleaning out their garage, etc. I know it has to be done but it's not my idea of a holiday for sure.

We had a good visit Saturday. The girls really enjoyed the Noguchi Playscape at Piedmont Park. They enjoyed it so much last time that the oldest one asked to go there instead of the regular playground. So much for critics. Children are the best judges. Everyone enjoyed the Green Market too but we had to talk the girls out of buying an organic pumpkin. A bit too pricey just for decoration!

The AJC Decatur Book Festival was lovely. Anyone who missed it should really try to get there next time. It's worth a trip. Wonderful weather this year and despite the economy, lots and lots of people. Also met some great people, including Jeff from Bound to Read Books in East Village. They are online at http://boundtobereadbooks.com/ but I definitely want to check it out in person.

I tried to "chill" today, but there were too many folks on the highways.

Hard to chill when traffic is so hot. :)
