Hey! Happy Thanksgiving to those wot celebrate it this weekend.

We just got back from dan's parents' place in southern PA. I'm thankful for a pair of mellow parents-out-of-law, who were great hosts, offered us the right amount of entertainment, sat with us and read companiably at other times, and fed us a delicious turkey dinner.  

I'm thankful for a drive through windy twisty roads today, which were fun, and gorgeous with the fall foliage.

I'm thankful for a partner who makes me laugh, makes me think, and frequently prompts me to say "that is a really good idea."

And I'm thankful for a wonderful home to come home to, now containing three fairly sleepy mammals.
