Happy Thanksgiving to all. As Paul said, today is filled with family and memories. And it is a time to create some new memories in the younger generation. We have only 3 generations to serve, maybe we will have 4 in a year or two. As we prepare to host 25, we have warm memories of dinners cooked by our parents and grandparents. I would invite you all to share in this family time. Regards, Bob S.
