Poppy's Front Porch - in the Missouri Ozarks

Poppy's Front Porch - in the Missouri Ozarks
This photo was taken in 1949. My cousins and I remember the porch after our grandfather walled it in, added a door and big screen windows.

It's that time of year again

I assume they held the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade again, but I didn't tune in to any of it.  Early in the day, my wife went to her mom's to help prepare the festivities, and I got up sorta kinda early to see if I could finish up my leaf blowing and outdoor Christmas light connecting.  The front part of the house looks good now, and all the lights in front are in place except for a string of 50 LED lights destined for a bush near our door.  Just ran out of time, before it was time to go over to Thanksgiving dinner.

It was a small, simple gathering, six of us, but we all had our favorite Thanksgiving fare.  It was a quiet, restful afternoon and evening.

Not much else to say, but I did want to re-post a link to what I wrote on Thanksgiving 2008.  I'll even ask the question again...what characters would you like to see made into those big Macy's Thanksgiving helium balloons?
