Any listing or discussion of a playlist for the best Labor Day songs will include the trilogy Dolly’s “9 to 5,” Donna’s “She Works Hard for the Money,” and David Allen’s “Take This Job and Shove It.” For a sample listing (click here.)

And speaking of working hard for the money, all three of our Ridge Restaurants will be open and dealing this Monday for your dining delight. Why not take a ride south, have a nice bite to eat and then drop into you-know-where.

No food served here; but plenty to drink!
