Thanksgiving Day
It one of the few American customs we could adopt, but like the Canadians I would hold it on another day. The American one is always the last Thursday in Nov. and being good capitalist they go shopping on the Friday, its the biggest shopping day of the year. Most get a holiday except for retailing.
I am sick of the commercial aspect of Christmas already and being told to go buy something and get into "the spirit of Christmas". I will get more of it though, heaps more.
I better thank the Lord for the weather now while its cool. I am going to do first aid at the big rowing event today and it will be very hot. Most events take half an hour and we could easily have some exhaustion and heat stroke. I will be uncomfortable. I already have the water and sunburn cream out.
best wishes from Gary
