    Kehl Homes Sunday Light Conversation and Our Labor Day Weekend Tradition

    Labor Day Weekend at our house means good food out on the back patio.  The grill has hot dogs, ribs, chicken, and hamburgers cooking and in the house we always have corn boiling and salads chillin’ in the fridge.

    The badminton game seems to keep on going all afternoon with the younger generations and the grandparents looking over Photo Albums and talking about trips taken in the last year.

    Our family is in charge of the grill while everyone gets involved with setting up the buffet in the kitchen.  It’s always the same in a good way.  The last big friend and family get together of the summer.  And that’s our family tradition for Labor Day.

    Kehl Homes Sunday Light Conversation and Labor Day History

    Before Labor Day shows up (which is next weekend by the way), it’s always fun to think about family plans for that day.  A lot of families get together for barbecues and time together.  The end of fall and a sense of the barbecue sitting idle for the winter is always a part of the conversations around the country.

    But do you know the rest of the story? 

    According to history, Labor Day is “Dedicated to the Social and Economic Achievements of American Workers.

    According to History.com (you know, the History Channel), in US history, the late 1850′s was an economy based more on manufacturing than agriculture from the past.  This brought on Unions organizing strikes and rallies protesting the age limitations, low wages, and long hours.  On September 5, 1882, 10,000 workers marched up to the New York City Hall looking for better working conditions.  This turned into the first Labor Day Parade.  Many states followed their lead and parades were expanding from town to town.  Unfortunately violence erupted as in the Haymarket Riots of 1886 in Chicago and lives were lost.  Again in 1894, the workers in the Pullman Palace Car Company in Chicago went on strike due to wages being cut and their Union Representatives getting fired.  Then a few weeks later on June 26th, Eugene V. Debs from the American Railroad Union asked for a boycott of the Pullman Railroad cars to support the company’s employees concerns.  This basically stopped transportation across the nation and hardly any product was being moved.

    The Federal Government had to do something, so they tried to break the strike by dispatching their military troops to Chicago which brought on several riots in the city and more deaths.  The President at the time, President Grover Cleveland, wanted reconciliation with the Unions.  Congress had no choice but to pass a Labor Day Holiday act quickly that was voted in unanimously and signed into law just 6 days after the 1894 strike.

    And there you have it.  Interesting, don’t you think?

     

    Basement Renovations with Kehl Brothers Homes

    Kehl Brothers Homes is a great company to go to for home renovation.  Are you in the need of finishing off your basement?  Kehl Brothers Homes is the company to go to with their three generations of expertise and quality workmanship.  Here is one Testimonial you might want to read:

    It is a great pleasure for me to recommend Kehl Brothers.

    My wife and I looked at quite a few builders and had narrowed it down to a couple but never really felt they had the vision on what we wanted.  Then a friend suggested we talk to Tim Kehl and see what they could do.  Within minutes of sitting with him, we both knew that this was the builder for us.  Both Tim and Chad understood what we wanted, seemed to care about building the best home possible for us, and listened to each of our concerns giving us feedback and information as to what could be done based on our desired.

    When we finally walked into our new home, I had a grin from ear to ear for months after and I still enjoy the house now as much as when I put the key into the lock almost a year ago.  While I know most people, my other friends included, look at a home as just a building that you live, I will never look at homes that way again.  Kehl Brothers made my house into my home and I never want to move again.

    Thanks again,

    Mark and Jackie

     

    Kehl Homes Sunday Light Conversation and the Utah State Fair 2011

    We Utah citizens are proud of our history and the Utah State Fair is part of that. Coming up again in September, it was created nine years after the pioneers entered the Salt Lake Valley.  In fact, this is their 156th year.  Utah State Fair trivia tells about the first year and an award of twenty-five dollars to Brigham Young for “Best Stallion” as well as the “Best Celery Exhibit” first prize.

    First called the Agriculture Park, the property it is located at now was purchased in 1902.  There have been many renovations since it’s beginnings, but it is still a property of great architecture and history.  Come check it out!  I’ll be there.

    Kehl Brothers Construction has been around for over eleven years

    Kehl Brothers Homes have been around for over eleven years but that’s not where the story began.  Chad and Tim Kehl started Kehl Brothers Construction, LLC, together after growing up in the construction industry together.  Their father, Roger Kehl and Uncle Dale Kehl owned their own construction business for over forty years. Chad and Tim became the second generation of brothers owning a construction company.  Raised in the home building and renovation industry, the Kehl sons understand quality and long-lasting work.  They run into families that brag that their thirty year old Kehl home is still in great shape and the quality placed into the work has made their lives better.

    It’s an interesting story and can be read here.  If you are interested at this time for a home construction or renovation, contact Kehl Brothers for a bid.  They are always happy to help their community with construction needs.

    Kehl Homes Sunday Light Conversation and home office renovations

    It seems that more and more companies have evolved into employees working from home.  This means more and more homes have offices to work in.  Many spare bedrooms have been renovated into rooms with desks and computers.  Bookshelves are being built into the walls and lighting fixtures are getting replaced with softer office light.  Built in desks are getting more and more popular where I’ve seen them built into new homes in the last few years.

    With change of office staffing from going to the office to staying home in the office, office renovations are the big thing right now.  Here in the Wasatch Front, the western look seems to be very popular, but I prefer the more French Country look.  It all depends on the personality of the home owner for sure.

    Kehl Homes Sunday Light Conversation and garage cleaning day

    Well, fall is coming and that means garage spring cleaning in our home.  All the tools get organized, golf bags are cleaned out, and the garage floor is scrubbed clean.  It’s a family affair with all the children invited (ordered) to help out.

    The day actually turns out good  and ending in ice-cream, but we find the oddest items.  There are always more tools than we own, meaning our neighbors are missing a few.  And tools missing from our garage are probably at the Jones garage when they had a car problem or house project.  Last year we found a spare tire we knew nothing about and we are still trying to figure that one out.  I think the best prize we’ve ever found in our garage clean out day is a baby doll carriage.  We asked all our neighbors but no one knows where it came from.

    Our yearly garage clean out day has become a tradition in our family that will never go away.  I’ll make a bet our children will do the same with their families.  And so on and so forth.
