MEMORIES ARE CREATED ON VACATIONS!!
|
Year on year, an ever increasing number of families make the decision to take a summer vacation. Despite the fact that a large number of individuals and families do take off and have a summer vacation, there are even more families that do not. Which type of family are you?
Listen, it doesn't matter whether you spend a few days at the beach, travel to the closest amusement park, stay a few days at a campsite, or travel overseas, they can all be considered as a summer vacation.
Perhaps, the greatest benefit of scheduling a summer vacation with your family is the amount of time that you will be able to spend together, enjoying each others company and having fun together.
Many families are rarely able to spend time together. Long work hours, homework, and busy sports schedules often prevent a family from enjoying dinner or other fun activities together. In some cases, a summer vacation is the only way that a family can spend uninterrupted quality time together.
For me, another "biggie" is relaxation.
People talk about how great it is for kids today, they have everything! Today, children must operate and function differently than they had to in the past. School age children are often bombarded with large amounts of homework, on a daily basis. This homework, along with active sport schedules and pressure to be the best, takes its toll.
A summer vacation provides them with the opportunity to switch off, have fun, meet new friends, and get the rest that they need and deserve.
What about you? What about the parents?
In addition to our kids, we need time to relax, to switch off and, hey, even have some fun!
We have our daily pressures, commitments and routines to adhere to. Taking a well deserved summer vacation with our family gives us the opportunity to forget about the pressures of work or running our household. It's even more important than that, however.
It's absolutely vital for our personal well being and that of our families that we take the time to relax and recharge in the way that a summer vacation allows us to do.
We are sending you some pictures of some of our employees summer vacations. I hope this will inspire you to plan your own vacation.
I appreciate you!

Featured Product of the Month
|
Yale 2100 Series Flatbar Exit Device
It is no secret that the Yale 2100 series flatbar exit device has a reputation as the right choice for meeting the rigors of demanding industry segments. Patented mechanisms made of heavily electroplated high-grade steel and non-ferrous materials provide sturdy construction and superior protection against corrosion. The 2100's steel interlock maintains door-to-mullion relationship in fire-labeled devices and the deadlocking Pullman latchbolt positively engages roller strikes. The 2110 series vertical rod device features positive action linkage on a deadlocking top Pullman bolt and simultaneous direct pull bottom deadbolt. When unlatched, the device keeps both bolts retracted until door is shut. It is no wonder that architects and specifiers both request the Yale 2100 series flatbar exit device for their toughest applications. |
