We had a thanksgiving dinner that couldn't be beat
Other than missing Arlo Guthrie's "Alice's Restaurant" for the umpteenth time on Thanksgiving Day, we had a Great day!
The weather changed today....we got that famous Oregon rain. But, you know what they say, a rainy day at the beach is better than any good day anywhere else!
It was your typical Thanksgiving day. We watched the parade, hung out with the family, ate some food (all day eating!), walked the dogs, played games, watched some football and then "had a Thanksgiving dinner that couldn't be beat!"
Brock and I joined Joan for a trip up the road to the Jesuit Retreat where there is a memorial to T.K. Brock and I hadn't seen it yet, and this was a good time to head up there, as Joan was dropping off flowers for the group.
It's a beautiful, rustic retreat. It's on a hill above the ocean and they have a lot of unmolested land where you can go and spend some time being quite and reflecting. It's really a beautiful place and we are happy we finally got the opportunity to visit it.
Leda enjoyed her first Thanksgiving Feast! No, she didn't eat the wing, but she seemed to like what she tasted when she licked it! Sarah made her a biscuit specially for her, which she loved! And, of course, she flirted with Scott as much as she could.
Tomorrow's the trip back to Portland, with a planned stop at the Spruce Goose museum! Yes, we will hopefully get to go into the Spruce Goose, not just get a picture as we drive by! Will report back tomorrow night on our success or failure! (totally depends on if we get out of here on time tomorrow to stop!)
Happy Thanksgiving! May the Holiday Season begin!
