Labor Day weekend is the unofficial end of summer in the United States. While summer officially ends with the autumn equinox, Labor Day’s timing as a federal holiday for American workers has set its cultural association with the closing of the summer season. School is back in session, cooler weather is on the horizon- (we got a small taste this past week) -and for many, it’s the last guaranteed long weekend of the year, offering a final opportunity for summer travel or gatherings with friends and family. The last hurrah of summer-and where did the summer go? 😊
