It’s been a while since I’ve had to make a trip home for Thanksgiving. We drove home on Wednesday afternoon with the dog in the backseat. Getting out of the Bay Area was not pleasant but once we were on Interstate 5, it was smooth sailing.

Before heading over to Jes’ parents’ house, we met up with Huy and Johann at Fridays. Ah, it’s nice to be home again. There’s nothing like sharing some buffalo wings with some old pals. Huy’s back from Iraq and he had lots of stories to share. I’m glad that he’s back in one piece.

Today we’re cooking turkey and all the fixins. It’s smellin’ purty tasty in here.
