A little known fact of history in the story of the Plymouth Colony and the Pilgrims can be seen in the holiday card above. The two younger brothers of Miles Standish - Kilometers and Feet - were wondering how they would find food for the first Thanksgiving. Fortunately, a kindly Indian princess - Shewannacookee of the Irocorgi tribe - took pity on them and brought them a turkey.
A sad attempt at humor but as long as I have dogs that will allow me to put them in costume and next to props, it will become a holiday tradition!
It occurred to me that many people will be traveling this weekend for the holiday - indeed, I am looking forward to my own younger brother coming on down from New Jersey to share in our first Thanksgiving holiday here in Tennessee - and Friday may be the last chance to access the Internet before heading out, so I wanted to send out this holiday greeting in anticipation of next Thursday.
May the day be one of bounty: happiness, peace, and joy. From our family to yours - a happy Thanksgiving!
