So were you back home in Texas or still in Florida for Thanksgiving?
I had mine last Friday night cause it was the only day we could all get together, 2 of the daughters had to work yesterday...
It was nice here so I was outside patching the driveway and playing with the dogs. I had a small hole (or so I thought) up by the garage. When I started pulling out the asphalt I found out the base course underneath had washed out and ended up using a whole 40lb bucket to patch it. Got to go out today and find some good sealer for some other small cracks.
Was online ordering some gifts for Xmas, also thawed out some pork to make some Tasso (for Red Beans and Rice next weekend) and some bottom round to make some "Po Boys" today... :)

Sounds like a full two days of activity:)
Yes made it back last week to have Thanksgiving with family.
Can remember a few times out on TDYs over Thanksgiving, even though I was with all "the guys" it just didn't seem the same...
Had about 7 of those overseas Thanksgiving and Christmas meals between combat tours and Korea.
Good chow every time except the last one in 2009. They let the Indian cooks handle it and it turned out fine but UN-American. I think they put curry in everything. I like curry, just not on my Thanksgiving day meal:)
Remember having one Thanksgiving in the "dust bowl" at NTC Fort Irwin CA (Mojave). The division commander had the option to get us there the day after Thanksgiving, but thought getting us there two days prior to Thanksgiving would give us more time to draw equipment. You can imagine how well that went over with the troops and our families. :(
