Giving Thanks

It’s a pretty special Thanksgiving for me and so let the thanking begin!  I’m thankful for a God who cares, and is willing to sacrifice His only Son in order to bring me to the kingdom (John 3:16).  I’m thankful for the best family a man could ask for, that while we had a turbulent year, can still love and laugh together.  I’m thankful for this site and anyone who’s passed by, as it has been an excellent outlet for things I’ve had simmering for years.  I hope those who have read or just looked at the pictures of ducks have enjoyed themselves.  I am thankful for Brian, as our friendship grows in many regards.  I am thankful for David, who introduced me to the world of podcasting, and Carol, who continues to remind me that “there’s always next year”.  I’m thankful for a good job to get up for in the morning.

And lastly, a very special thanks to those who have donated to the museum.  These people give expecting nothing in return.  I hope to someday be able to return the kindness.

May God grant us all peace and rest for this holiday.

You take Sixteen Ounces and what do you get?

Dr. Pepper now comes in 16oz. cans with labels saying “made with cane sugar”.  It is a fabulous time to be alive.  I hope the title brought visions of Tennessee Ernie Ford into crystal clarity.  Gaither Gospel Series has a great 40 song compilation of gospel songs that I just love; especially “I Can Tell You the Time”. And duck #45 came in on 05.18; my biggest patron crashed her motorcycle and found it in the hospital gift shop.  She’s recuperating very well, and I’ve sped her healing by sharing banana oatmeal muffins made by my beautiful wife. 

And I’ve been linked by my friend Carol at yankeeaholic.com!  She’s ummm, well, a Yankee fan, and another patron to the poultry preserve (nos. 38 and 44 respectively, to show up in Jan/Feb of 2008 if kept on schedule).  Give her a visit and see what she’s up to.

This one is a post on Saturday rather than Monday as I once again have the day off!  Ducks have now been moved to the sidebar with a flickr badge for ease of viewing.

GLU!
