US Thanksgiving 2016

Thankful

Canadians celebrated Thanksgiving a month ago, but the Quimper Hittys are glad to wish their US friends a very happy Thanksgiving on their special day.

We are thankful for so many things:

For the beauty of the earth; sunlit warmth and cool shade; all the creatures great and small; food enough to eat today; Friends we love of every ilk, close to home and far away; creative hands and minds who work for love and fairness, joy and peace.

  I am so glad to have met friends like you! I was pleased with the way the photo turned out – I took the picture and my favourite photographer helped me fiddle with it but just a tiny bit!

  Thanks very much – it was a great morning-light moment – I had to assemble everything quickly, because the forcast was for endless rain the rest of the week! I was really pleased with the way it turned out!

  Thank you very much – the alligator has come in for the winter, too chilly outdoors…and we adore the rocking chairs!

  Thanks very much, and you are very welcome! We loved the sudden way the pumpkins and flowers began to glow in the morning light – and that’s the way the picture started! I hope your Thanksgiving day was lovely!
