It’s exactly one month ’til Christmas.
Most of us celebrated a traditional American Thanksgiving yesterday. We did here as well. A little weird, or unconventional, but that’s okay.
I did manage to watch the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. My family knows that’s the one time of the year that I am not to be called upon for other tasks. Not to worry, I took care of my regular Thanksgiving responsibilities before the parade kicked off.
Today is Black Friday, the busiest shopping day of the year. I am thankful that I need nothing so desperately that I need to go out in to the shopping madness. Although I will confess that I may check out the deals on Amazon.
Speaking of Amazon, Herbie and Quinn are waiting for you on the farm.
Here are Five for Friday.

Regardless of who you voted for, and what you may or may not think of Donald Trump, it should concern us all greatly that the mainstream media suppressed a story that might have influenced the outcome of the 2020 election. Especially since they did it on purpose.
Believe what you must, but know the truth.

Winterfest at Kings Dominion officially Opens Tonight
Yes, we’ve had November nights, and yes, many of the shows are already up and running, including mine. But Winterfest officially opens tonight at Kings Dominion and ushers in the Winterfest Wonderland Parade. It really is a magical experience.
And it’s one of the many reasons that my next day “off” is January 2nd.
Have a good week.
