Why Do They Call it Labor Day?

If anyone knows the answer to that question please tell me! If we call the day that we don't work Labor Day, then why don't we call the days we do work Non-Labor Day?

Anyhow, would you like to know what we did on Labor Day? We went to the mountains on a picnic. Don't ask me which mountain we went to because I don't know, but it was a mountain! Joel brought Linette and he also picked up Julia at Penn View. On the way up the mountain we came upon a good sized rattlesnake coiled in the road. Julia had her camera so she got some

pictures of it.

Daddy drove up next to it trying to get it to strike the tire but all it did was rattle.

After we ate we climbed part-way up the mountain on a little trail. Daddy and Julia went all the way to the top but the rest of us chickened out because we were afraid of snakes.

Notice Serena and Hannah trying to keep on their feet. Unfortunately the only shoes they brought where their old sneakers, that are so slick on the bottom that they have used them to slide on the linoleum in the kitchen (only when Mommy's gone :).

Serena "falling" off a cliff. She was actually about 12 inches off the ground.

A black snake another picnicker killed. It didn't have a head but it kept on moving.
