HAPPY THANKSGIVING & TBT

To all of you celebrating Thanksgiving today I offer my wish for a happy non-political day of feasting and football.

To the rest of you I wish for a quiet, warm and happy day.

Here in Arizona, as in much of the U.S.A., there are storm clouds on the horizon.


A pretty sky to the south at sunset last night.

A striking view to the west.


Today will be a day much like one I photographed last week.


Rain showers during the day will change to snow overnight and last through early Saturday morning.

But we have a warm house and lots of good food for our annual feast.

The BRD and Beau Jack are vacationing in Puerto Vallarta, which brings me to ThrowBack Thursday and a day from back in the 1980's.

Lovely Judith, aka SWMBO, and I were living in Guadalajara, Mexico then and my former colleague in my television days, a young fellow who later on evolved into Baseball Steve, flew down to meet up with me in Puerto Vallarta.


Our younger, slimmer and fully bearded selves enjoyed a couple of golden days in the sun.

Today I give thanks for "the good times", many of which I've had and continue to have.

Enjoy your memories and your turkey*.


* - Not everyone eats turkey on Thanksgiving Day.  We're having Rock Cornish game hens.

  1. No football, but quietly with ourselves and our cats, occasionally shoveling snow. Plenty of non-turkey based food, but cranberry sauce and chicken and pumpkin pie.

  2. I think his shorts are shorter than yours!

    I've had the little Cornish hens stuffed for Thanksgiving before, and enjoyed not having the huge mess of a big turkey. Anything Judy cooks will be fabulous!

  3. The little hens will be spatchcocked so not stuffed. But a huge dish of dressing has been prepared by both of us and is ready to roast.

  4. I suspect you loaned him those shorts.
