Thanksgiving Again

The weather in Boston for November is weirdly warm. When I was a kid, I remember we all wished for snow by Thanksgiving. We've got highs in the 50's predicted for the next week, so I'll be surprised if we get any snow.

Have you started that "things I'm thankful for" list ... maybe I'll start with all the squirrels outside my dining room French doors, it's like a widescreen Discovery Channel live nut concert, very cool. Squirrels tails are really long, almost as long as their bodies and they seem to use them to balance as they scurry around. I love the shiny white fur halo around the edge of their (oh, hell, there's no better word) bushy tails.
