Thanksgiving

This was our first Thanksgiving on the road. We have so much to be thankful for. Our health, family, friends and each other. We are fortunate to be able to live this lifestyle we have chosen for ourselves. We are constantly looking at each other and smiling. Wow. We are living our dream.

We were sitting outside and a man stopped by and asked if he could take our picture. He is from Finland and said no one at home will believe that people live on the road in large RV's the way we do. It is quite the life.

Thanksgiving to me is going to Mom and Dads house for turkey on the rotisserie, stuffing, gravy, egg noodles, salads and pies. Eating outside on the patio and soaking in the sunshine. Margaritas, Cuba Libres, lots of laughter and loud voices. We're the Oswalds. In WA it's a delicious potluck with Kaela (and friends), Melissa (and friends); Brian and Barb. We changed from turkey to prime rib. And added some vegan entrees. We have blended well.

Thanksgiving felt different because neither of our girls were with us and our good friends Brian and Barb are in WA. They were all greatly missed. Kay was kind to invite us to her house. We had a great time. Her sister Leigh was visiting from Louisiana and together we shared a day of drinks, food and football. Yummy.
