Thanksgiving #3 - Austin, TX


Lunch with Walkers - thumbs up

More time with Lynanne, Neal and boys - thumbs up

75 degree weather on Thanksgiving Day - neutral thumbs (not sure if this was great or still an oddity to me - shouldn't it be cold and windy with some drizzle?)

Our dessert contributions (pumpkin ice cream pie and pecan pie) - thumbs down

Afternoon movie - thumbs up

Austrailia - thumbs up (but not way up as Oprah enthused)

Afternoon movie followed by afternoon nap - thumbs up

Everyone should have 3 Thanksgivings. It's the best I tell you. The best.

Progress?

On the heels of such historic progress, tantamount regression (failure of equality, really).
