Long day ... and barely getting to writing.
I had hoped to write a longer piece on Thanksgiving and Thankskilling and how different it is to live in a place where Thanksgiving means the celebration of a brutal war designed to take away someone's land rather than a time to give thanks for good friends and relations...
Not that it means that to all folks in Albuquerque -- but there is real history that cannot be avoided there.
In Southern California, I posed with a guy in a turkey suit at Whole Foods, took a walk on the beach and saw the sunset from the pier, saw dolphins in the ocean while cruising down the Pacific Coast Highway, got to hang out with my nephew and then the whole family... not to mention food and drink and an improvised balderdash since someone forgot the game...
And my cousin made it through the surgery which turned into quadruple bypass and is already trying to plot how to get back to work.
So much to be thankful for...
So much to be thoughtful about ...
So little time to do any of that ...
Good night, and I hope you had a great day with the people who make you laugh and cry
