Happy Thanksgiving

Enjoy the last day of Thanksgiving weekend. I'll see you next week.

A Time for Turkeys

By Claire Booth

It’s turkey season. Yes, there’s the meal on Thursday, but I’m talking about the reappearance of our neighborhood flock.

They show up about the first of November and stick around for several months. And I love them. They remind me that our neighborhood isn’t just all about the humans. And they make me very thankful I live in an area that has wildlife.

Access to nature is important to me, and so I’m thankful to have it in my everyday life. And as we close in on Thanksgiving, I’m also thankful for my friends and family, and for my writing.

What’s important to you? What makes you thankful? And how much extra time would you factor in if you knew you’d get stuck in a turkey jam on the way to work?
