Laboring for those who have gone ahead

Labor Day is a United States federal holiday that takes place on the first Monday in September. The holiday began in 1882, originating from a desire by the Central Labor Union to create a day off for the "working man". It is still celebrated mainly as a day of rest and marks the symbolic end of summer for many. Labor Day became a federal holiday by Act of Congress in 1894.

We just returned from doing a session in the San Diego Temple. It was a sunny day, which means the sun streaming through to the inside of the temple was beeeyoutifull! If you are ever in the San Diego area you must visit them temple inside or at least the outside. We were so glad that they had the temple open today (unusual for a Monday and a holiday)!
