Roundup and Link Love – Labor Day 2008 Edition

Norwalk Trout


Gotta love these three day weekends. Tomorrow, we’re planning a day long family trip to the Spring River to picnic, play some games, and trout fish. We have a spot that we’ve been going to for several years that has a huge oak tree for shade, a paved parking area, restroom facilities, and 9,000 gallons per hour of freezing cold water passing by with huge amounts of rainbows and browns. Ah, life is good.

Right now, my youngest daughter is making homemade sugar cookies, and my other two kids are playing badminton in the yard. Yes, life IS good.

I’ve been exceedingly busy with physical inventories at our stores all week and have fallen behind in my reading, but was still able to find some great articles this week.

I can relate to having to wake up early and go count inventories. Thanks for the link, and I hope you enjoy your time off.
