Untraditional Thanksgiving

John and Carol visited us for Thanksgiving this year.  Since John is not a turkey fan we had baked ham, spoonbread, salad, peas & pearls, pineapple cassserole,sweet potato biscuits, and pecan pie.  Mrs. Ringling's meatballs made an appearance as well.  This morning we started off with buckwheat cakes followed by a lovey hike at the N. C. Botanical Gardens and tuckered the dogs out.

Meet Our New Granddog, Georgia

Georgia is part black lab and part pit bull.  She's a rescue dog that ML and Robert adopted Saturday.  She's about 5 years old and has a sweet temperament.  Georgia appears to be getting along with Toby and TJ which says a lot.  Not sure how they are doing with her.

There's a spread on the new family on Georgia's blog.

Liddy's Memorial service leaflet and post pics

The last page of the leaflet indicated that ARTEK was permenently dedicating its concert series to Liddy Guiher.  These are modestly-priced evening concerts of chamber music held at Immamuel Lutheran Church.  This year's concerts are on November 3, January 26 and April 19.  I hope to be able to get to at least one of these.

Wilmington VT floods

Please consider sending a charitable contribution to Memorial Hall Center for the Arts (MHCA), PO Box 1720, Wilmington, VT 05363.  They lost almost everything that was in the basement storage due to hurricane.  The flooding in downtown Wilmington was 7" higher than in the 1938 flood.  See the video Ned and Royal made.
