Happy Labor Day!
This is a monthly feature of the highlights that I saw, read, watched, or listened to on the internet during the month. I’m a few days late posting it since I was out of town, but I didn’t want to wait another month and double it up, since who knows where we’ll be then? Also, I thought some of you might have the extra time needed to peruse this today. I hope you find something among these links that is inspiring, educational, motivating, interesting or informative here:
