On the farm and giving thanks
Filed Under (Life) by Adam on 23-11-2007
It is always nice to come up to the farm. It is a very nice change of pace. I sat working last night and it was quite so quiet I could hear the cat outside walking in the snow. Unlike my apartment in the city where I can hear the people walking around upstairs, sirens of passing police cars and fire trucks, even the horns from passing trains. I guess growing up out in the sticks and then moving into the city has me longing to move back. The only downside to living in the sticks is that there really aren’t a lot of jobs out there and to get to the cities where there are jobs is quite the drive. Maybe someday when I am old and rich I can move back to the sticks where it is quiet and less busy.
It was great to spend time with the family and see all the little ones running around while the old folks chatted about everything under the sun. One cant talk about thanksgiving with out talking about the great food. I don’t think I will need to eat for at least a week. I figure I can splurge 3 times a year, and Thanksgiving is one of them.
I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. Now as we look forward towards Christmas and the New Year we can definitely give thanks for the many great things in our lives over the past year.
