Memories, memories ......

9:00, 11/22/2012, Thanksgiving Morning, the tears are flowing, the parade is starting, a flood of memories  overwhelmed me. This has always been a special day, it is the start of "the" season. I used to make Melissa and Brad get up, whether they wanted to or not, and watch the parade with me.

Generally the smell of turkey was permeating the air, mixed with many other sumptuous odors. I generally  make the statement, "Next year will be in New York to see the parade." A couple of years I have been in New York, but never saw the parade. The memories are enough.

Regardless of how "blaze e" I have become, "the parade" brings back many wonderful memories, followed by a flood of tears.

Happy Thanksgiving to All !!!!!!!!
