Update

I've been trying to write something here for a couple of days.  I thought I would let you know that we are all OK here.  Mom's friends from England invited their Las Vegas "gang" over for Thanksgiving yesterday.  It was quite a spread.



We are wearing paper hats.  We "pulled crackers", which is an English traditions.



What is the best way to open a cracker? Crackers are usually shared between two individuals, one pulling on each end. The traditional way to pull a cracker is crossing your arms and pulling a whole circle of crackers around the table. Everyone holds their cracker in their right hand and pulls their neighbors cracker with the free left hand.
Today, virtually every household in the UK has at least one box of party crackers to pull at meal times, parties, and family gatherings over the holiday season.

Thanks Bernie and Carol for a wonderful Thanksgiving!

We will be flying back to Indiana with Mom from Dec 3 - 10th.  Both of my brothers will be coming in on Friday with the Memorial on Sat. the 7th.  We'll then come back to the Whale and Las Vegas and stay with Mom through Christmas and the New Year.  We are praying about plans for us after that.

We won't be going out for Black Friday, today.  Be safe.
