Happy Thanksgiving!

This is my favorite of holidays because it celebrates no one person or entity, I am almost always in the company of good friends a/o family and, good food is always an integral part of the festivities. I wish all of you a happy day of giving thanks whether you celebrate the holiday in a traditional fashion or a form more tailored to specific beliefs or lifestyles.

Not exactly a beautiful bird, but majestic in his way. A beautiful picture!

  Thanks Mom! Well, he’s a beautiful turkey but it’s true, they have a face only a mother could love – lol. I understand why Turkey Vultures have featherless heads (their messy eating habits) but I really can’t come up with a reason for turkeys to be so burdened. I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving and I love you very much!

  And you as well! I cooked a lot of food for just four of us so I’m just now really getting to enjoy the food fest.
