Happy Thanksgiving






Rather than a photo, here's a painting today. This is titled, "The First Thanksgiving" and was painted by Jean Louis Gerome Ferris (1863-1930).

Thank you to Mrs. Sarah Josepha Hale for lobbying to make today a national holiday. Thank you also to President Lincoln for declaring Thanksgiving a national holiday in 1863.

I better start cooking, I've got 14 people coming over later! Gobble Gobble!
