I'll leave the car on the bridge and head towards your house - creamed onions are my favorite and A20 wants to try the carrot souffle.


You are welcome anytime.

However, you would have a bit more driving than
that since we are heading upstate to the Adirondacks
for Thanksgiving with my entire family.

It will be wall to wall kids and craziness. Lots of
fun to be had. Seems that each year there is something
memorable that happens when we are together up there.

Last year the water well pump burned out. 15 people and
no flushable toilet... Actually we brought buckets down
to the lake used them to refill the toilets. Then my
brother and I would use the excuse to get out of the
house for an hour or so, as we drove to a natural spring
we know of, to get drinking water. (Yeah we could have bought
bottled water, but this was more fun...) We'd often come
back with 4-5 gallons of water and an empty 6 pack
of beer.

This year there will be 18 of us in that house.
And two dogs.

...until Saturday...

Something memorable is bound to happen.

Hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving Holiday...I'm flying to sunny south Florida early tomorrow morning -- my younger brother and I will be spending a long weekend with my parents down in Naples.
