To all our American members I wish you a Happy Thanksgiving and a

Back atcha George.
As Canadian members, Gerry and I celebrated along with you.
She took a container of turkey and gravy out of the freezer, left-over
from our Thanksgiving last month. That, along with some vacuum packed
green beans, freshly mashed home grown potatoes and a bottle of home
made wine was great. As a mater of fact, Gerry said 'I think I enjoyed
this more tonight than I did at Thanksgiving'.
She was right, because there was just the two of us, none of the
stress which comes with preparing for the 14 to 18 descendants we
normally have.
Now we have Christmas to look forward to ;-).

We celebrated with our daughter and son-in-law today. Saturday is the
big day for the whole family. About 16 will be there, our son and his
family will be with his wife's family on Saturday or there would be 20
of us. With all the small children there it will be very noisy so we, I
hope, won't stay to long. I can love them to pieces in small batches but
I had no intent to get that many descendants when we married fifty-five
years ago come December 26th this year. I guess our garden was a bit to
fertile. G
