Thanksgiving Weekend

We hope you all enjoyed a Happy Thanksgiving.

We celebrated our first Thanksgiving in our home. There are milestones around every corner. We had a pretty traditional dinner. A yummy, moist turkey, salad, sweet potatoes and cornbread. It's hard to have all the fixings when you're cooking for two.

We went bowling Friday night. Bob had been once but this was a first for me. The bowling alley is recently redone, but so tiny. There are a total of ten lanes. As we are always learning new things about were we live this was another lesson. We didn't change lanes, just bowled on the same side all 3 games. When we asked others about it they said "I have no idea what you're talking about". Okay then. Also, there is no etiquette. No buddy waits they just walk up and bowl. That threw me off a few times. And we of course waited. It was odd but fun.

We also saw Beowulf on Friday. It was good. I loved what they did with gold. We filled up on popcorn and pop. The perks of working at the theater.

The rest of the weekend has been filled with cleaning, wrapping presents and preparing Christmas Cards. The four days off is fabulous. Tomorrow it is back to the weekly routine. MJ

I can relate to the "waiting for other bowlers" too. It must be a "West of the Mississippi" thing.
