From the Marketplace Datebook, here’s a look at what’s coming up April 24:

Did you buy a dishwasher in March? The Commerce Department reports on orders for appliances and other durable goods.

It’s Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day. Not a parent? Maybe it’s Get Away From Your Coworkers’ Kids and Take a Really Long Lunch Day.

If you’re in Iceland you probably have time off to celebrate the first day of summer on Thursday. It’s a public holiday.

Actress Shirley MacLaine turns 80.

And the focus is on traveling far. Really far. A three-day Humans to Mars Summit wraps at George Washington University.

There’s a lot happening in the world.  Through it all, Marketplace is here for you.
