Thanksgiving traditions

Yep, Football when I was in HS. (Massachusetts) Hudson vs Marlboro. I had girlfriends at both schools.....Yeah that was always interesting...

Now it is up to Bangor to the wife's family place. I have no other family left alive so it is a given that I go up for T-day or Xmas. 4 hour ride each way. I usually alternate so that the guy that covers for me at work can have a Christmas or Thanksgiving with his kids.

It humbles me, makes me feel grateful for all that I have, and puts everything into perspective.

In Maryland where I grew up it was also high school football played at Memorial stadium where the BALTIMORE Colts played.

Now it is 18 for dinner in Florida and I do all the cooking. A log on the fire and the AC cranked up. Not better,not worse, just different.....but I'm much older and more thankful.
