Thanksgiving

The Estate Sale went well, and a lot of stuff that I thought should go to recycle was actually wanted by someone else.  Today is Thanksgiving, and dinner is at 2:00, Kathryn and Ernie will be attending with us.  Anne-Marie has worked on cooking the turkeys, and yesterday she made the gravy and dressing for the meal.  When Anne-Marie was finished with the meal prep yesterday, she smelled like Thanksgiving dinner for several hours after.  The bunch of us went out for dinner at Tiny’s last night, and we had a good meal, and a wonderful time visiting.  Tomorrow is another sale day, and a packing day for the family mementos, and Ernie and I will have a run to the local transfer site after the sale ends.

The days post isn’t complete without the latest from the trail camera.  A coyote in the background.

A coyote dashing across in front of the seed block, and that’s all that there was.

The wildlife in Copper Crest show themselves more often than they do here in the RV Park.  Tuesday afternoon, Anne-Marie, Kathryn, and Ernie got to watch a Javelina wandering around the wash, right out the backdoor of Grandma’s house, and it was there for nearly 10 minutes.  These are the most miserable looking animals, 1/3 head, and covered with coarse gray brown hair.  They don’t look like anybody would want to rush out and hug or pet one.  They have a strong musky odor, and Kathryn could still smell it after it had left, most unpleasant.
