“Day Without Immigrants”

This post is not a social or political entry, as it relates to today’s immigration rallies. It is merely an observation.

It is interesting to me how a national event is mirrored in small towns. I work from my home each day, and on a typical spring morning, I usually endure the buzz of lawn mowers and hedge trimmers used by local landscape companies throughout the town. A good majority of the workers who tend to our lawns are from Mexico.

Today, it is dead silent. No mowers, no leaf blowers…it’s simply a quiet, glorious May day. Interesting juxtaposition, if you ask me.

How has your business been affected by today’s rallies…or if you are protesting, how did the day go for you?
