Thanksgiving Memory. Period

This is the one photo of Thanksgiving 2006 that was taken before the camera battery died. Todd's dad Mike was fishing and even caught one, but threw it back. This lake is behind Todd's aunt's home, where Thanksgiving dinner was held. Thanksgiving was a great break and what other day of the year have I had an in-depth conversation with one 93-year old man (relative of Todd's) who regaled me about his boxing days, one 100-year-old woman (Todd's grandmother) whom in conversation shrugged off "a little bit of cancer" on her neck, and two 18 and 20-year old college students, who raved about Casino Royale, the new Bond movie? A balanced perspective for the day. I'm comfortably in the middle. Hopefully on the younger side of the middle, of course, but it's fun to imagine the 2070s when I'll be 100 and still on my first bionic hip!
