last week monday it was labor day, which marks the end of summer, symbolically... it often also means, for children, back to school. so this liquor store had a fitting (?) slogan. i photographed their witty slogans once before, on thanksgiving (here). when we still lived in somerville, we sometimes waited there for the bus. and while i always check their slogans, we never went inside that liquor store. we did this saturday, and it was a little sad (the other people too), just fitting with their sayings... they all sound a little alcoholic.... :)
anyways, wikipedia also tells me that in "high society", labor day is (or was) considered the last day of the year when it is fashionable for women to wear white. good to know.... ;)
(meanwhile its still hot here, while we had a lot, lot of rain last week, the past few days have been very sunny and warm, between 25-30 degrees celsius!)

So when the kids are back to school you can start celebrating with liquor is the message? A weird sign indeed. Lucky you with the sunshine, we have 15 degrees with lots of storms and rain, trees falling down, it is not even autumn...sigh.
haha i did like the other one better...
Wow, that is just too sad to be true.
i think the people from the liquor store just drink a little too muh before they make up the signs...!
