I haven't seen the local turkey families yet this year. They're not crossing the street at the same time I head off for work. But this week on PBS Nature, there was a story about a man who raised and mothered 16 baby turkeys. A wonderful story -- full of charm and joy, but not without sorrow. If you're in need of a different kind of turkey fix this Thanksgiving, you can watch the video online (My Life as a Turkey).I hope you really do set aside time today to reflect on what you are thankful for. When I actually take the time, I realize there is so much (even on a bad day, which this isn't). So, a few things to start off the day -- I'm thankful for:
- Mr. Madley
- my cozy home
- my darling neurotic cat
- sunshine
- family & friends
- indoor plumbing
- native birds
- my job
- locally-grown food
- books
- homemade bread
- pie
Have a delightful Thanksgiving!
