Giving Thanks

Growing up, I was a huge fan of Charles Kuralt's On the Road series on CBS. He was a superb writer and a master storyteller.

This piece, which first aired back in 1978, is as moving today as it was back then:

I miss Charles Kuralt... but I'm grateful we still have his reminder, courtesy of the remarkable Chandler family of Prairie, Mississippi, of what Thanksgiving is all about. May you be as blessed on this day as they are. I certainly feel that way today. :c)

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

Now Be Thankful

This is just a quick post to wish one and all a wonderful holiday tomorrow.

I'll be saying my thanks tomorrow for the wonderful new friends I've made this year through this blog, and for the old friends who have been so supportive. I wouldn't be here without all of you, so thank you so, so much.

Bring on the turkey, and especially the mashed potatoes (can't help it, I'm Irish)! Yum…

Here's a beautiful song from Fairport Convention that couldn't be more appropriate. Happy Thanksgiving!
