Happy Thanksgiving…

11-23-2006 4-58-11 PMThere is food and then there is food. Aunt Belinda is a master in the kitchen and there wasn't enough time or stomach room to give each dish the proper respect.

The morning started out with a little bit of gathering, not much of an opportunity for the hunting part. We fired up the John Deere and started out back for some firewood for tonight's fire on the back porch. There was the usual taming of Tallmonster's expectations on just how big this fire would be and the use of flammables and explosives was strictly forbidden.

Mindy, Austin, and Frank made it in, and we sat down to eat in the early afternoon. A feast to end all feasts, we decided to move down South for the food alone, although the weather couldn't be beat sunny and 65.

11-23-2006 5-01-22 PMWe made an attempt to clean up, still not sure if Aunt Belinda will ever find all of her dishes after we put them away, and watched a bit of football. More eating and drinking finished the afternoon.

That evening the fire-pit was stoked and some of the neighbors came down for the Friday night meeting that was rescheduled for Thursday. What a great bunch. We laughed and laughed when the stories really started flowing after a few adult beverages.

The jmonsters were in there glory, as the adults were outside they had the run of the upstairs with some of the neighbor kids and Austin. We would come in only to stop something from being broken or a trip to the hospital. After staying up to eleven, a new jmonsters record we decided to call it a night.
