Hey, before you all take off for the long holiday weekend, I want to say "thanks"!

Thanks for hanging out with me on Trail Head. For your comments and thoughts and ideas and humor. It sure makes my day. I hope it adds something to yours.

I don't have any pithy stuff for you today. Nothing much on the outdoors.

Rather, I sincerely hope that you all have someplace special to go, some special people in your lives to be with tomorrow. To share the big meal, enjoy a glass of wine, to sit and relax and talk, watch a little football. Together.

And maybe after the digestive processes have done their thing you can get out for a walk, a hike, some skiing. Whatever you do, enjoy. Travel safely.

I'm not sure what, if anything, this has to do with Thanksgiving, but The Desiderata is on my mind today. It just so happens to hang on the wall of my office and today I've read it again fully. It's a good reminder of what's important, how life should be lived.

Happy Thanksgiving!
