Thanksgiving at its core, is a celebration of the Pilgrims’ first harvest. The day was filled with joy for the achievements in the field and the opportunity to share a meal with others including Native Americans.
I’m having a commercially made Thanksgiving dinner for which the sweat equity is picking it up but there is so much to be grateful for. Regardless of the setbacks and we all have them, I’m thankful for each day I wake up with my husband and dogs surrounding me.
Many of you are traveling for the holiday, and the weather is atrocious on both coasts. Take your time and plan for delays, even cancellations. The holidays are a great time to see family, but the weather can play center stage. Be safe.
I’m also thankful for you, the conversations, and laughs we’ve had are priceless.

yes, we don’t have Thanksgiving in Oz ; it would be good to celebrate all the good we have instead of continually bickering over the bad —

I’m so glad you mentioned Native Americans, so many overlook the original Americans.
