A Happy Thanksgiving to you all!

The flowers from the Dame to grace the table this year. Much to be thankful for. Family, a close circle of friends, good health, a job I love, and surrounded by nature. As Travel Penguin blogged... I'm grateful for enough. And all you for your entertaining comments.
I love watching the Thanksgiving Day parade...I guess tradition. A fun fact. In the 1920's, and 30's it wasn't uncommon to catch a glimpse of a giant dragon, Felix the cat, or hippo floating in the air days after the Macy's parade ended. It seems like a crazy idea, but it happened, the balloons would be released. Once the balloons were freed from their tethers; there was no control over where they went or where they ended up. Some hit lamp posts, the hippo almost collided with the Empire State Building, and others in neighboring counties and states hitting power lines. Most balloons came to the ground within the five boroughs, but some balloons traveled over 100 miles, one character ballon was found in Greenville, Connecticut and two others way out over the Atlantic!

Happy Thanksgiving, yes, there's still much to be Thankful for my Friend. I didn't know they used to release those giant Balloons, The Man is watching the Parade right now, I'm Blogging. *winks* The Daughter is watching a Martha Stewart Tutorial to remember how to cook the Turkey. *Smiles* She has a Friend here joining us and helping her as her Sous Chef. *LOL*

ReplyDeleteOK, so there’s one thing I miss about living in the States. The Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade!
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy your blog, but at holiday times, it is extra charming! The flowers are stunning. Enjoy your guest today my dear.
ReplyDeleteLike Mitchell, I too miss Thanksgiving since leaving the US...but I do a little ode to it when it comes around. I LOVE seeing your Thanksgiving pictures every year, Mistress. Thanks for sharing. Is your mouth watering yet? I bet your home smells wonderful.
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving Turkey Lurky! I can't believe they used to release the balloons!!!
ReplyDeleteAbout 10 minutes ago, the news on TV spoke of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, and so I immediately thought of you -- I know you love it! Have a wonderful feast today with family and friends!
