this thanksgiving i was an orphan of sorts. now, don't get me wrong - i had several seattle invites. but, having been in the city several times in the last few weeks i just really wanted to stay put here on the island, as it's so beautiful this time of year with all the loveliness of fall.
so, i had resolved myself to the possibility that i may be spending thanksgiving alone as no island plans had evolved. but, at the last moment i weaseled an invite to the barn house for a fabulous feast with 30 other guests.
I realized while being there, truly what i like most about the holiday was
the coming together of the multi-generations of people.
from the tots to the teens and everyone in between, on up to the elders.
talking with young and old and sharing in conversation and good food.
