(“A Holiday Haven,” another installment in a tale of two turkeys.)
If you are in or from the United States, I hope you are having a good Thanksgiving Day. If not, I trust that you’re having a good November 24th. And 23rd, too, of course. Enjoy the weekend, while you’re at it. Within reason, of course.
Some folks write sober monographs for this holiday, thoroughly discussing the myriad reasons we have for being thankful.
Others present schmaltzy pieces on the same topic: about as deep as a rain puddle.
I have a great deal to be thankful for. We all do. Just existing is a whole lot better than the alternative. Add to that the hope for something even better: and anything else is gravy.
I don’t think the two turkeys would appreciate that expression, and that’s another topic. Topics. About that duo — You may have seen them before, last month. (October 30, 2017)

Happy Thanksgiving Brian. Slight correction, it’s the 23rd. 🙂
Oops. Right you are. I’ll fix that. And thanks! 🙂

I do that a lot. Don’t know why. Fixed, thanks!
