It’s a video. It’s called “Mayflower Voyagers,” part of a series called “This Is America, Charlie Brown.” I’m not finding it for free viewing on Youtube.

"If nobody saw it, it didn't happen. Or if only one person saw it, he can just avoid butter at that meal."

LOL!

Well, he KNEW he was misbehaving, because as soon as I walked in and stopped in shock, he was off the table like a lightning bolt. So he got points for having a good kitty conscience, even in his moment of weakness...and even though some things flew off the table when he skedaddled, lol.

"Happy Thanksgiving to everyone at your house! DP and Bill should be home from running soon, whereupon progress can be made regarding the turkey."

Thank you! We're having a very untraditional yet welcome Thanksgiving this year. Everyone usually congregates at the inlaws' house, but they took a break and went to the beach. So we all decided to sort of do our thing and relax for once. We'll be having Thanksgiving tacos.

I should rouse myself to do some exercise myself, like your folks...but I'm kind of doubtful it's going to happen today.

"The same to you and yours, Catherine!"

Thank you, Monkey Face.

"It’s a great day to be thankful for every good thing we have!"

Amen to that.

I liked the one with the leaf, when I searched, but it’s not Thanksgiving-specific, unless you eat leaves.

We usually have turkey enchiladas on Saturday following Thanksgiving.

I look upon it as a rescue kitteh in need of an intervention. Clearly held captive by evil progressive uber-vegans. Release the true inner lion! Let it eat turkey!

There was a programme about the Pilgrim Fathers last night.
They didn’t exactly leave from Plymouth.
The route was Hull to Amsterdam,then ten years later Amsterdam to Southampton, Southampton to the boat yard at Plymouth then out into the great Blueyonder.
The first boat blew a head gasket as it approached walking pace ,just south of Plymouth.
Apparently they originated in Nottinghamshire......

Or maybe if you go out for some target shooting on Thanksgiving. There's a whole book about it.

And that’s the truth! LOL!

Turkey enchiladas sound really good! But then, I like enchiladas a LOT!

I’m back. I took the byos and Kathleen to the park and then had a nap.

In case you haven't kept up, Kathleen, the Tasmanian devil princess, is almost 4.

A dangerous age...

Very amusing!

Gormless Bill decided he wanted he wants cornbread stuffing, so he’s attempting to make it. “Do you remember how I’m supposed to cut up an onion?” “With a knife, Bill.”

I’ve got out my thread-lace centerpiece and put my floating-candle display on it.

It just gets more, um, nuanced when they get to 15...
