We'll be off on holiday travel in a few hours, so I wanted to offer our wishes for a happy Thanksgiving to all our US forum members!

I think I speak for all of the Canadians on the forum when I say "wasn't Thanksgiving last month?" Smile

Speaking for myself, I hope you're enjoying your Turkey Day.

A bunch of Americans moved in next door to us yonks ago. Sure enough, they invited us to their 'thanksgiving' dinner

But we'd read our history books.... do ho ho.....

...and had work and college to go to.

Of course, the Americans are long gone back home with the job. And we're still here!
Oh sweet meteor of death
Fall upon us.
Deliver us in fire
To Peace everlasting.

For me, Thanksgiving was Tuesday.  Big Grin   That's only partly a joke. My family's had a custom of having the big dinner at least a day early since I owned a small retail business and wanted to make sure I was there for Black Friday. I no longer own the business, but my sister, the emergency responder has taken over the motivation for early dinners by being routinely on duty Thanksgiving or the day after, and not wanting to deal with travel the day before a 24 hour shift.  This year, she decided that Tuesday was the best day for her to have the big dinner.
