Musings and occasional rants from a location in the pacific northwest, where the air is still sweet, the trees tall and old, and we can see the stars in a clear night sky. Is this paradise? No... it's Oregon.

Thanksgiving Two: The Gamminator
Bill and I drove over on Thursday, Nov. 24, for a turkey day celebration with Mom and Joe.
While I cooked, and Bill made a last minute run to the store, Joe vacuumed and tidied up. We got out some of Mom's 'Spode' dishes for the meal.
Gussie watched.
Joe took the Grape to fetch Mom.
Trying out the new front ramp. (Joe almost dumped her out on the first try!)
Joe poured champagne to celebrate the occasion.
The feast! (Turkey, sausage stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy, mashed sweet potatoes with a sugared pecan crunchy topping, rolls, fresh cranberry sauce, olives, and cranberry salad.) (And pumpkin pie with heavy cream for dessert.)
The diners....
Even Gussie had a plate of turkey.
Happy turkey, everyone!
