Wishing a happy and safe Thanksgiving to all the BFT family. Some I have been fortunate to meet this past year, Curt, John, Jeff, Mike, RockyRaab, and others not yet actually met, but have read your posts, Pat, OldCoot, BLK, and numerous others.
Enjoy the day off if you have it, and the time you spend with your families. If you are traveling for the holiday, be safe.
[fishin] Happy Thanksgiving

Hope you have a great Thanksgiving as well Forest. Are you getting out to Willard for any late season shore fishing, like last year?

Curt, as a matter of fact, have been thinking about that today. Unless something comes up that changes my plans, I will head out there in the morning. Probably get breakfast at Stagecoach about 7 ish, then head to north marina. Not doing any of our Thanksgiving until Sunday.

[#0000FF]Thanks for the kindly wishes...and the same back to ya. Hope you have a good family session on Sunday.
And also hope you find some willing fishies if you get out to Willard. I'm nursing a twisted knee I got from slipping on a piece of ice on my last (masochistic) trip there.

[quote Flyfishinglover]Customers demand made black Friday into black Thursday so who ever works in retail work while people are actually celebrating the holiday.
You should check a book out about Thanksgiving. The Indian helped the Americans out by teaching them how to plant and harvest properly. In the end people these's days don't care about it. If it wasn't for Thanksgiving we might not even be alive in the US.
Hope that explains it all a little better.[/quote]
Get out of the retail business,Ive been in it for 55 years,and its not gonna change.

FFL,
I just want you to know I celebrate Thanksgiving properly:
Here is a quick run down, please let me know how I am doing?
Thurs: I fish at UL or work on my duck blind till 11ish. I then have all my family over for the rest of the day for a nice meal.
Fri: I almost always goose hunt this day. If the geese aren't cooperating, I will shoot ducks instead.
Sat: Depending on how well friday went, I may hit the geese again. I have not winterized my boat yet so a trip out on the lake is also a good option.
Sun: I go to Church to give thanks to my Creator for such an awesome world to live in.
Are you serious about the indians helping the pilgrams or are you pulling my leg?
