We went for a barbecue at my sister in laws Yesterday,
later me and my niece we went to the beach for some sunsets,
all my photos were taken from a landing 12 steps down,
We did not dare to take 50 more steps,
All these years I have been going there never used their private
beach from above.
Labor Day is a federal holiday in the United States celebrated on the first Monday in September to honor and recognize the American labor movement and the works and contributions of laborers to the development and achievements of the United States. It is the Monday of the long weekend known as Labor Day Weekend.
Have a nice Holiday.
Bei Sanierungsarbeiten wurde kürzlich das ursprüngliche Labor Nikola Teslas entdeckt.
„Wenn sie bedenken, dass Tesla hier an bahnbrechenden Erfindungen arbeitete, während vielleicht der kleine Gauß beim Spielen im Hof den 10 DM Schein erfunden hat, wird die ganze Bedeutung dieser Entdeckung bewusst, die zumindest ebenso epochal ist, wie das Verschwinden von Bernd sein Zimmer aus dem Königsberger Schloss“, kommentierte Oberwachtmeister Erich Wuttke von der Dienststelle Hattersheim den Fund.

I noticed two opposing architectural details on a building in Seattle, took a shot of each one and thought they would make a nice collage for our Labor Day Holiday.

Of all my wildlife blessings over the years, this encounter has to be in the top three. While walking the beaches of Ft. Pickens Florida back in early April of 2021, I had a pod of 12+ Bottlenose dolphins frolicking some 50 yards off the beach.
Through my travels and my many years in the Navy, I have seen and photographed dolphins too many times to count. This morning, and these two dolphins in particular, were acting very differently than any other I have seen.
They were hovering just below the surface, making wakes that indicated that at least one of them was moving about while submerged. Then they would both rise, take a breath and resume the same action. Being a kid from Indiana, I had no idea what was going on. I thought she might be giving birth, but having only been around dogs, cows, horses, buffalo, alpacas and my bride (twice) while giving birth…I had no idea what dolphin labor, especially with 99% of it taking place under water and out of view, looked like.
This photograph captures the last time they broke the surface together. This is the breath taken to make that last push that grants birth.
The next photograph taken and already shared, was of the baby breaking the surface and taking its first breath.
Looking back now, the odd wake while submerged was her staying somewhat stationary while he swam circles around her…no doubt keeping one eye on his bride, and the other looking out for possible predators while she was at her most vulnerable.
Witnessing special times can be such a gift from God!

The giraffe has her eye on some of the vegetation.
The Masai giraffe, also spelled Maasai giraffe, or the Kilimanjaro giraffe (Giraffa camelopardalis tippelskirchi), is the largest subspecies of giraffe and the tallest land mammal. It is found in Kenya and Tanzania.
The Masai giraffe has jagged spots on its body. It also has a short tassel of hair on its tail. The bony outgrowths of the male's skull superficially provide the appearance of up to five ossicones. The dominant male's spots tend to be darker in colour than those of other members of its herd.
Adult males usually reach around 5.5 m in height—although they have been recorded at reaching heights of up to 6 m—and females tend to be a bit shorter at around 5–5.5 m (16–18 ft) tall. Their legs and necks are both about 2 m (6 ft 7 in) long, and their heart has a mass of roughly 12 kg (26 lb).
No breeding season is noted for the Masai giraffe. Females typically can breed from the age of 4. They give birth standing up. Giraffes give birth after 2–6 hours of labor. About 50–75% of the calves die in their first few months due to predation. Though many calves die, the mothers stab predators such as hyenas or lions with their sharp hooves. This can critically injure or kill a predator quickly; the Masai giraffe's kick is strong and is capable of crushing a lion's skull or shattering its spine. – Wikipedia

It takes all kinds of hard working folks to keep this country moving, and I appreciate them and their efforts. Happy Labor Day.
For the working class of America this day means a three day weekend and an opportunity to have a BBQ and a family gathering, but it's been a generation since inception and I'd like to make a reminder here. We scoff at what China is doing right now, but they are going through the exact same things America did in the not so distant past. Slavery, indentured servitude, child labor, and then union strife. Like reading a book you can see them turning the page on greed as these things for them like us will be overcome and the people will be respected and compensated fairly hopefully sooner than latter. I believe that America can help by removing them from most favored nation status and force them to this centuries standards on how we treat people and pollution. That said, I thank goodness for those MILLIONS who fought, who died, who persevered to free our slaves, who outlawed child labor, who organized our workers so that they may be compensated according to their labor and hold accountable those in power to protect those who are not. Power to the people, and God bless America.
