Happy Thanksgiving Weekend Up North

[IPD_Mr]

Just want to wish our neighbors to the north a very happy Thanksgiving.

Thank you kind neighbours. Hope to return the warm thoughts back to you in November.

I had no idea that the Canucks celebrated Thanksgiving until now!!:redface:
Just goes to show that we're never to old to learn summut!!:biggrin:
Is it based around the same ideas as the USA one?


Have a good one !!:biggrin:

It is earlier because their harvest is earlier. Heck some of them are getting snow.

Thanks Mike.

It's pretty much the exact same thing but without football on every channel and the insane shopping the day after (black friday).

Yep - it's just a 'harvest celebration' sort of holiday. Today, however, we have a snow day at school, with trees falling over from the sheer volume of snow and busses cancelled for the entire region; I wish I had dug up my potatoes last week!

There's football, though - I think Buck Pierce is planning on playing with a concussion to help the struggling Blue Bombers....Go Peg!

Thanks very much. Looking forward to the organic turkey soon to grace, briefly, :tongue: our table. :biggrin:

All the best
Pete

PS. Skippy we embrace all the good holidays, especially the ones with food and drink. :wink:

Sounds like a Thanksgiving I could get into. Happy Thanksgiving, our Canadian friends!

The Mrs just took the last pumpkin pie that she is making for the weekend, out of the oven. We will have about twnety people in to celebrate the season, and to give thanks. We do a large gathering like this twice a year, now and at Christmas time. The gathering at Christmas time though, is about twice as large as this weekend will be. We've been doing this for about twenty years now, so I guess you could call it a tradition.
