Joanne ... its quite trip to Wisconsin from DFW, but you're welcome here. You can even bring a pet or two, as long as it would be your intention you return home as a group.

That is so sweet timberland Laughing , you even thought of the Bean and Carlotta. Actually we will be fine here, I have been alone on Thanks Giving many years now and I am used to it. It is just that tonight for some reason I felt like answering this question honestly. For so many years people I worked with or friends would bring up the same question and I always just nodded and said yes I had plans. But it doesn't seem right to do that any more. Rolling Eyes

Great news about your invite, Joanne! Not much of a trip at all, but if you plan it right, and don't balk at considering a park a "Woods", you can manage a real "Over the River and through the woods" Enjoy ... and let us know how it went!

Well I could go to dallas by going to North West Fort Worth first and cross the Trinity river and then I could keep my eyes peeled for a stand of live oak trees and pretend they were woods.

Next Thursday is turkey day or Thanksgiving in the US. But we have to talk about it and plan for it. Actually most of us think it is the best holiday we have since we meet, eat, and talk. It is a real family day.

Yummy, I love Cuban food. Last summer in D.C. friends took me to a Cuban retruant, I was straving and the waitress bet me a free dessert if I ate everything which I did. My treat was tres leches, yummy.

You will like it I am sure. Tell us more about Candian Thanks Giving. I have to admit I did not know they had one.

It's pretty much like ours, 'cept they have it on a Monday in October, which means they don't get the four-day weekend enjoyed by most Americans. When i was up there last year, i took the dog to the park, where a i met a gentleman who takes the American thanksgiving holiday off each year so he can watch all the football games on cable. I think he began to doubt my credentials as a bona fide American when i told him those games didn't interest me.
