Re: HAPPY THANKSGIVING

Actually, Dave, we ate at a Chinese Restaurant, in Muskegon, MI. Different, that's for sure. Remininscent of the scene in the movie, "A Christmas Story," when the family has Christmas dinner in a Chinese restaurant. We had a fun time. We had lots of turkey and trimmings, a coupla times, actually, in the weeks leading up to Thanksgiving. It looks like Christmas dinner will be traditional, in Chicago, with my side of the family, instead of with these Michiganders. Stay well, Bill
