Hi All!

Yep...made the flight yesterday morning with no problems. 2-hour layover in Nashville was kind of a bummer but I brought plenty of book along. 'Course by the time I got to Raleigh the car rental place was down to the tanks. The smallest thing I could find was a LeSabre.

Dinner preparations were well underway when I got there. Thanks to my nephew who prepped the coconut, we had coconut cake with the fresh stuff the way it was intended. Note: never fix sweet potatoes, green bean casserole, or pumpkin pie because Brother and Sister-in-Law will bring them. We did okay on that except that the Violin Sister invited a friend over for dinner and he brought a pumpkin pie. We were still down one pie from last year. :)

I didn't get to the computer yesterday. My uber-geek nephew brought his desktop from home and a laptop (I think. I'm not sure who the laptop belonged to) and he set up a network so he and his cousin and my brother could play some game all afternoon. The younger kids were on the TV with the Nintendo. Us wimmin folk were sittin' and chatting most of the time between dishwasher loads.

Hope everyone had a great Turkey Day!

Good Morning OT. Glad you made the journey safe and sound. LeSabre - that's a tank alright. 'give me 40 acres and I'll turn this rig around' comes to mind.

Sounds like a great visit - food - friends - family. Did Mr. Darcy (?) get his fair share of the turkey?

Snow melting nicely here, it's in the 40's and sunny.
