I wonder what was on the mind of Pilgrims when they were on their way to Plymouth Rock. It must have been a scary time for these brave sailors searching for the new world. The world is mostly water and the oceans are so vast, it’s a wonder they made it to America. It was Plymouth Rock that they first struck land at and they quickly learned they were not alone. The natives to this new land was called Indians and they had been in America many years before the white man ever came. The two sides didn’t always see things eye to eye, but they would eventually make peace long enough to have a great party one day. They had a feast that a King would have enjoyed and no man, woman, or child left this dinner party feeling hungry.
That leads us to present day and once again we celebrate the days of life at Plymouth Rock. This is Thanksgiving Day in America and it’s one of our best holidays we have on the calendar. Many families will sit down at the table today just like the Pilgrims and Indians did so long ago and enjoy a meal that would be fit for a king. I believe the most popular item on dinner tables today is the turkey and this is one good tasting bird. I like the white meat the best and you eat that with a few good vegetables, some dressing with giblet gravy and a nice piece of pumpkin or sweet potato pie and it becomes one memborable meal. I hope your family is all together this year and everyone was able to make it to Plymouth Rock to enjoy the company of loved-ones and to chow down on some really great food today. Happy Thanksgiving!
