Hey everybody. Thanksgiving Day greeting to the whole gang. We had our first ever w/o Ben. But, I found some pics of him online. That's him in the foreground.

One of my fondest Thanksgivings was one that almost wasn’t. Son was changing duty stations and could not get a flight down until Thanksgiving Day. Told Mom we would just have to have dinner without him because he wouldn’t be here until late. She gave me this GTH look and said “We’ll wait.”
We had the full Thanksgiving spread at 10:00 at night.
He missed the next three running, hopefully Ben won’t.

You done good Don O. Mrs Bender and I had our first Thanksgiving dinner alone in 51 years of blissful marriage...
