Stayed home for Thanksgiving this year.
While my mom was alive and after Dad died, I used to drive 1100 miles every Thanksgiving to spend time with her and family in North Carolina, but since she's been gone (in 2016) I just stay here in Illinois. Most Thanksgivings, we go over to McHenry and have T-giving dinner at the Grand Buffet, a Chinese place. Love that selection and food.
After that, we go to Sunnyside Tavern in Johnsburg and talk with friends while watching some NFL football.
Yesterday, we just stayed home, but had a ham dinner with apple sauce, pineapples, green beans and Hawaiian rolls. Not bad in these virus times.
Originally we had planned to be in Georgia where my sister had a dinner for family in Savannah. Things must be much better in the south with the virus, because her two lids and their families were there (from Tifton, Georgia and Bluffton, South Carolina which are nearby) as were my brother and girlfriend from Goldsboro, North Carolina and nephews family from Nashville, Tennessee.
Maybe Next Year, hopefully.
