Another Thanksgiving is upon us. Wishing you and yours a warm and joyful one. :)
 
May your bellies be full of tasty morsels as you're surrounded by loved ones!
 
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! My we all have something to be thankful for.

Can't wait for the prime rib dinner at the kids today. Apparently my son in law doesn't care for the turkey tradition and i ain't complainin!
 
Kinda sad, but true. A man that I have known as a friend and mentor was told one week ago that he had two weeks to live and they stopped his cancer treatments. I'd been thinking of thanking him for all of the help I have received from him in the last 40 years, but didn't want to "jinx" anything. (I'm only superstitious about my mouth)
I hadn't known his condition for two minutes before I did thank him. Since then my wife and I have visited once, and will do so again. I will always be thankful for the opportunity to let him know how I feel about him. As men we often don't express our feelings to other men and I will be eternally grateful that he knows my toughts.
I didn't get that opportunity with Dad and I didn't want to miss this one.

I am so thankful for that.

Doing roast beef, after an after lunch power sleep. Odd shifts this year, so not all together at dinner. My mom wants stuffing as another side. She's happy with beef instead of turkey or ham, just wants stuffing too. Made a mad dash to get some yesterday (thought we had some put up. Oops! Glad I checked!).

I'll probably just have a snack @"dinner" & take a plate with fixins & pie for 1am, or 2am or 3am...depends how many sick folks come in.

Safe & Happy Thanksgiving all!
 
I love a good whiskey.
However Wild Turkey seemed too "sweet" for my taste....How does this Rye taste...?
Andy
The Rare Bird is my favorite bourbon. I love the finish of 101 and these cask proof Turks. (I do not like whiskeys that have what I describe as a corn meal finish)
This rye I really like. At $60 a bottle it's not cheap, but it will not be the last bottle I buy. I've become a real fan of cask proof whiskeys. I don't put water or ice in my whiskeys and appreciate it when the distiller doesn't, either. If you were semi close, Andy, I would come up and we could sample. I might need a couch to crash on, though. ;)

Thank you for that....will search out a bottle to try.
Water or ice in a whiskey....EEEK...!!!! :eek:
Glad to see I ain't the only one who enjoys whiskey as is....:D
Semi close.....Ahhh...while I like where I live...it is far aways from most folks here at NWFA.

Happy Thanksgiving folks, have lots to be thankful for in this life (PNW life). Will probably be our last one here unless we visit family.
I could retire now, but am going to keep working until about the time my wife retires. At that time we are seriously considering relocating to the John Day area. Still Orygun, but away from the Willamette Valley and Portland.

Good luck to you, @Caveman Jim

Thanks @orygun gun.
I've been medically retired for 20 years already just couldn't talk myself (wife) into leaving till my body said GTHOOWa. The cold and wet is debilitating for my arthritis anymore so now I need to go somewhere warm, home to Fl.
 
Happy Thanksgiving to all. Hope all have a safe day.
Want to thank everyone for the help and information available on here. And sometimes for the enjoyable reading of a thread you won't touch with a 10 ft pole!
 
Thanks @orygun gun.

I'm sorry to hear that Jim. I told Jane about you moving and she asked "What about the tornado's/hurricane's?" I'll guess that you'll figure out catching warm water fish pretty good. Not as special eating, but plenty good fun. OR & WA seem to be doing their best to eliminate consumption fisheries for anadromous fish for us anyway.
