Thanksgiving!

[Pam Garlow]

It's a beautiful day in Michigan, and I'm so thankful for my family, friends, and the internet! Turkey is in the oven, and I'm watching the America's Thanksgiving Parade (a Detroit tradition since 1924).

Best wishes to all the FGRV'rs and Families

We just arrived from an overnight trip from Montana to NE Iowa. Turkey know where near oven.

Happy Thanksgiving!

~Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow. ~Melody Beattie

It's snowing here in west Michigan. In about an hour I'm going to meet my son in Grand Rapids and we're going somewhere for dinner. This evening We're going to Civic theater for the Sound of Music. I'm going to watch and my son will be playing in the pit orchestra. First Thanksgiving without my late wife.

Happy Thanksgiving to all my American friends! Pam, I watched the Detroit parade as well. It was beautiful with the snow gently falling.......and very nice to watch from the my livingroom beside the fireplace. LOL

Donna, what a beautiful quote.......so true!

Bob, I'm glad you are planning your day with your son. Grace will still be there with you in spirit. I'm sure you and your son will be thinking about her and all the years you spent together, raising a family.....so much to be thankful for.

Whats with all of this Thanksgiving talk? Are you not aware that Thanksgiving is long past and was on October 7 this year? At least in Canada it was. Happy turkey day to our American neighbors.

American Thanksgiving just gives the Old Bag an excuse to cook another turkey, which is precisely what's happening. I of course, am staying out of her way, and watching Oakland play Dallas.

I grew up with turkeys, my father raised them, processed, and sold them fresh or frozen. The last few years that he was in business he had a large commercial rotisserie oven and would cook them for customers. The big pole barn where the turkeys were raised now contains all my toys; campers, vintage cars and trucks, tractors, and a bunch of other stuff. Today, since we are away from home, we found a restaurant here in Destin Florida that does a free thanksgiving dinner all day. They accept donations to benefit Habitat for Humanity, which we were happy to donate to. They have been doing this for 19 years now. Nice meal of turkey, ham, mashed potatoes, stuffing, carrots and beans, cranberry sauce, and choice of drink and desert. Many thanks to the owner and his staff!!

I am thankful that the Lions didn't throw away the win with too many turnovers. Woohoo!

Yes there are two thanksgivings and we celebrated both of them this year, in Ontario with my wife's family and Thursday here in NC with our daughter son in-law and their new daughter born Monday night. A belated thanksgiving to all our Cdn and American friends.
