I'm sitting here trying to digest the way too much Thanksgiving dinner I ate. Enjoying just sitting and visiting with family. Here's hoping that each and every one of you is doing the same. Suffering from eating way too much good food, and enjoying the day with your family and/or close friends.

Nice N Easy,

I chartered Seidelman S37’s in the Chesapeake Bay in the mid-80’s several weeks per year in the late autumn and early spring when I lived in Pennsylvania. Very nice boat and fast.

My wife cooked up Thanksgiving dinner with a turkey, ham and all the traditional trimmings on our sailboat with friends and immediate family last Sunday. That was a goal she wanted to fulfill since we purchase our first sailboat, a 1987 Hunter 31, two years ago. In a couple of hours we plan to join our friends for a Thanksgiving dinner and the 49’s game.

Happy Holidays!!

Seems to me you are on line instead of spending time with your family. But....just an observation. I really don't care. Hope you are enjoying the day doing whatever.

Wife started in on her pie crusts around 7 AM yesterday, thinking she'd be done and done with baking in just a few hours. On the eighth hour, she rested.
We loaded up the car with 3 pies, a casserole dish of sweet potatoes, 2 bottles of wine and 2 dogs.
Went to my cousin Kate's place in town, where her ex-hubby Bill had whomped up a beautiful bird with an apple basting and "heat-sink" cheesy potatoes from a recipe of my late Grandmother's. There was stuffing, some jalapeno-cranberry sauce and the usual accoutrements. Four dogs kept a close eye on the negligible spillage.
That was nigh on twelve hours ago, and I'm still full.

Thanksgiving Day

I spent the day with family and ate way to much dinner. Enjoyed seeing the nieces and nephews and other members of the family. Now since I didn't get around to saying what I am thankfulfor: My children, my husband and all my family. I am most thankful for my team of doctors and nurses who say that I can be well again after a birage of chemo, surgery and radiation. All of your prayers will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks N&E we had a very nice dinner with family and friends.
Neighbors roasted a turkey and I smoked one so PLENTY of leftovers!
Got the smoked turkey carcass simmering in a big pot for soup right now, another Thanksgiving tradition in my house.

Wishing you a speedy and full recovery and many more happy years. Been to Mobile twice. Both times by ship. A city that exudes the charm of the deep south.

Thank you so much for your kind wishes and thoughtfulness. The doctors have given me a good prognosis but one never knows when they hear the big "C"

Turkey? for Thanksgiving? Bah!

Our dinner was boiled shrimp and fried speckled trout. The trout were swimming that morning at 2AM when we went out to catch them. The fried potatoes and onions were the best side dish although the green bean casserole came in a close second with the fried Durkey onion rings on top.

I wonder if there's any leftovers? hmmm.
