Happy Thanksgiving to My American Daughter

     My daughter's life fits nicely into four sections. First, she lived at home until she finished High School. Second she spent 11 years attending university and working. Third, she came back to the city and taught for 7  years. Fourth, she moved to Chicago.

     When my daughter came back to town she was a well established adult. She insisted on having Thanksgiving at her house every year. She's a rebel and would not do the traditional Thanksgiving feast. She liked to try other things. So we had leg of lamb, steak, chicken, duck ... a variety , but never turkey. Thanksgiving at her house was always a good time. It was something to be thankful for.

    Now she does thanksgiving at a different time with different folks. She still has a great celebration. She still shares with everyone what she is thankful for.

    So Happy Thanksgiving to my American daughter! Happy thanksgiving to all my American readers. I am thankful that you follow me and share your blog.

  1. A pity for you she lives so far away now. Btw, I see in my sideline still your post of November 22 with the watertower. But when I click on it I see your recent post. Same as a couple of weeks ago.

    1. I think that it's blogger that is wrong. I notice other blogs doing the same thing. Thanks for telling me about the problem. I'm sorry that blogger isn't performing as it should.

    1. Since we live side by side we usually get along well. The Tea party is obnoxious but other than that we are good to go.
      I will be doing some cross country skiing this week end.
