Happy Thanksgiving to all and hope you have safe and stress-free travels!

We started last Sunday with hosting my mom's side here, T-Day will be my dad's in Grand Ledge and I'm hoping the smallies in his pond out back will make for "quality family time" spent there!

There's much to be "thankful" for...

Its 8am, Thanksgiving. I wish I was fishing, I wish I was hunting, I wish I was eating turkey already. I wish the Lions would win 2 in a row. I can wish all day and never have a better life than the one I have, filled with a big happy family, many great friends, and lots of LOVE. HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL

I often tell my wife I'm the luckiest man in the world. 
I have so much to be thankful for, and am.

My grandfather used to tell me that when you get right down to it, if you've got enough to eat, a roof over your head, and people that you love to share it with, what else is there?

I have all of these, and much more. 

I hope that you and yours will have a safe and wonderful  day. 
So much water.  So many lures.  So little time.

There is a lot for all of us here on the board to be thankful for.  The first thing that comes to mind is our health.  Without that we have nothing.  With that I wish everyone here on the board a very Healthy and Happy Thanksgiving!!!  God Bless All!!

Happy Thanksgiving...

I am thankful for my Families health and that I still have employment..Last December I wasn't so sure if my employment would continue through 2009.....

Prayers sent for out troops overseas.....

This time of year reminds me of Thanksgiving 2005...I was sitting in a chow hall at Camp Victory in Baghdad Iraq waiting for a flight for my unit out of theater..I have never been so thankful in my life...In spite of numerous fire fights, VBIEDs, Mortars, Rockets, etc etc, I had 100 percent of my troops sitting down with me that day...After over a year in theater to get everyone out of there in one piece was nothing short of a miracle..It goes to show you what alot of prayer and faith can accomplish.....I cannot tell you how relieved I was....That Thanksgiving meal was the last meal that alot of our guys ate in Iraq.....We ended up back in Lansing Michigan the first week of December..I think it was December 5th.......

Thank you, for you r sacrifices for us, and thank you to all of the others who are fighting for our country, and are not able to sit down today with their families.  I was raised in an Army family, and I know what it is like to not have my father home on holidays.  It is a big sacrifice for all involved.  Happy Thanksgiving.

Happy Thanksgiving everybody!
