Thanksgiving

I didn't write a post yesterday because it was a big day of going to the Newark Earthworks (amazing, astounding, humbling, incredible) and driving home from Ohio with Nadine as far as her place in Hamilton Ontario.

This morning, we drove a further 2 1/2 hours north to Daniel and Kent's place for Canadian Thanksgiving.

(Funnily enough, I've never heard of Americans calling their 'American Thanksgiving' - to them it's just 'Thanksgiving' -yes indeed the centre doesn't have to name itself - which is why the US has a Black president and NZ has had women Prime Ministers, despite GWB not being described as a White president nor John Key a man PM. Well, I wouldn't call Key much of a man anyway, but that's another story...)

We had a lovely meal (deep fried turkey!) followed by pumpkin pie and lots of laughs (especially with a new game they'd just been given) and a short walk before Nadine and I headed home again.

And here I am, back on Spadina Ave. Thinking about my weekend in Ohio and Ontario and feeling thankful. Oh, sorry that's Thankful.
