Happy Thanksgiving

We have so much to be thankful for today. Our town closes up, but our American Legion puts on a traditional turkey feed for all the veterans and anyone from the community. Veterans who are in the program in our Domiciliary have a feast at the VA, or some choose to join the townsfolk and veterans at the Legion. Hot Springs is truly "the veterans town" even on Thanksgiving when all restaurants are closed.

Bob and I won a free turkey and decided to celebrate at home, inviting a couple of veterans who might enjoy the home atmosphere. It seemed appropriate as I have spent the last two years working with the Save our VA committee and writing Reville in Hot Springs to promote the cause for our vets.

The doorbell just rang. One of the veterans arrived and it is time to celebrate.

I am grateful for so many things on this day of thanks and will share some of them another day.

Now there is only time to say "Have a great day."
