Happy Thanksgiving !!!!!!
I want to wish all here a very Happy Thanksgiving. And, a special wish of Thanksgiving to those troops deployed in foreign lands far from home. Those of us that have experienced the Holidays away from home, in the service of this country, know that Thanksgiving and Christmas are probably the hardest times to be away from home and your loved ones.
Happy Thanksgiving
Be Safe
God Bless
Sempers,
Roger, Ellie and Family.........
Giving Thanks
For the hay and the corn and the wheat that is reaped,
For the labor well done, and the barns that are heaped,
For the sun and the dew and the sweet honeycomb,
For the rose and the song and the harvest brought home --
Thanksgiving! Thanksgiving!
For the trade and the skill and the wealth in our land,
For the cunning and strength of the workingman's hand,
For the good that our artists and poets have taught,
For the friendship that hope and affection have brought --
Thanksgiving! Thanksgiving!
For the homes that with purest affection are blest,
For the season of plenty and well-deserved rest,
For our country extending from sea unto sea;
The land that is known as the "Land of the Free" --
Thanksgiving! Thanksgiving!

The first Thanksgiving celebrated so very little and today we have so very much. While you feast on turkey and football this thanksgiving, also take some time for reflection.
