Monday is the Canadian Thanksgiving with many celebrating Sunday.

I was in your beautiful country last year at this time and spent Turkey Day at the Bay of Fundy with my dear friend Lisa Rose. I also tried curling for the first time in my life that day and landed very appropriately on my derrier every time. I will never forget what a grand time my neighbors showed me on my first visit (it will NOT be my last, I want to see Peggy's Cove with one of your Carolina blue skies).

I wish you all a fantastic and heartfelt long weekend.

Lisa P.

    Lisa, you are always so up on all of this!!!

    Thanks for the tip!

    And, Lisa Rose, Robinvan...and any others 'north of the border'....Happy Thansgiving...

    One question, do you guys have turkey, too...or is that just a 'south of the border' tradition?

    Hugs, Kathi

    Hi Bev,

    Wishing you and yours a very Happy Thanksgiving. The weather here on the east coast is exceptionally gorgeous today. I love the changing colors of the leaves it just adds that extra touch at Thanksgiving ...

    Hi Bob,

    Were still not sure Andrew is in a curling tournament that weekend and transportation is the problem. When you know roughly what day you are arriving send us a note and we will know one way or the other.

    Had a great time in Nashville with you and Katie.

    Take Care,

    Lisa
