NOT EVERYBODY LOOKS FORWARD TO THANKSGIVING!

Thanksgiving is the most traveled holiday here in the U.S.
Americans seem to yearn to spend the holiday with family.

They put up with traffic jams and trips taking much longer than anticipated seeking a return to the home fires.
Once they arrive at their destinations, the rigors of the trip are quickly forgotten.
They are home again. The warm and fuzzy feelings embrace us as we remember what it was like growing up.

We share great times of conservation, football games, and glorious food.
Our troubles are forgotten, if only for a little while.
Gratitude fills our hearts.
Our spirits are renewed.

Then, on Sunday, we pile back into our vehicles and head from whence we came via more traffic jams and longer trip time.

When we arrive back and look back over the weekend, we ask, “was it worth the hassle?” And answer, “Yes!” and vow to do again next year!

That is except for

So be sure to add thanks to Tom!
