Thanksgiving is upon us!
« on: November 26, 2014, 08:15:56 AM »
Happy Thanksgiving all!

I love Thanksgiving, it's a great time of year to reflect on what I am thankful for in my life.

I'm thankful for my country, as dysfunctional as it seems at times, and the soldiers and first responders that get paid too little for doing so much.

I'm thankful for my wife and kids, my health and their health. My parents, brothers and sisters, and ALL my inlaws, yep, they are awesome too.

I'm thankful for smart people in the world doing amazing things, like the doctors and staff in Minnesota helping little Reid Underwood with his devastating disease.

I'm thankful for my friends and this club, a great bunch of people to enjoy a crazy hobby with.

Oh, and I'm thankful for AllSouth too...

Tomorrow is busy with travel, cooking, cleaning, drinking, football etc......if you have a minute, remember what you are thankful for. Odds are, you have a nice long list.

Cheers!

Well said Tony. I'm thankful for the health of my kids, wife and me (despite some extra lbs). We are fortunate to have both sets of our parents who are also in good health.   

I'm thankful for the friends I have made through this club and the good fortune to enjoy this hobby.

I am also thankful for AllSouth as I have learned so much working with them.

And finally, I'm thankful for my BGE and the yummy Turkey it will yield tomorrow.  ;-)

My daughter is part of the GSU marching band that's participating in the Macy's parade tomorrow.  So I'll be watching the parade tomorrow morning for sure.

Good words Tony.

I'm thankful for my wife (amazing life accomplishment here) and girls, my mom who turns 87 Friday, brother (ranryn), and sister,

my health and the health my family and of those around me,

the opportunities I've been given, And the things I am able to provide for my family that make their lives better,

We are so blessed.

I'm thankful for all my friends, GATR brothers, friends that are close and not so close... I'm blessed in this category too

I'm thankful that I have friends and family that will come from many different directions for me and my family if we have a need, as we would for them,

And thankful for my freedom, born in the greatest country on earth, with opportunity that creates for me and my children,

For all of my off road friends including all the folks at Allsouth, RockKrawler, Poison Spyder, Raceline, Misch4x4, and others

And the ability to pray openly for many in need now, Reid, Larry at PS with oral cancer, our  good friend with pancreatic cancer, friends in need,

And I'm most thankful for my relationship with my God that guides and directs and protects me everyday as I circle this little planet we live on.

God bless you all.

I hope everybody has a great Thanksgiving if it's with family or friends or both.
This is the first Thanksgiving that my family is split up. Reid is in Minnesota  and had Turkey dinner at the hospital with several of the Minnesota  Vikings football players last night. This is a very sressful time with my family and all we can do it a few phone calls a day and text messages. Reid started Chemo yesterday and will do it for the next 4 days then a day of Radiation. So I am Thankful for wonder doctors and Nurses taking care of Reid and my Brother and his wife and Avery. I am also very thankful for all the support in the offroad community from people wanting to help and vendors stepping up with Awesome product for a raffle.
We have a great club here and have been very impressed with how well everybody gets along and helps each other out.

In Biloxi...no snow, lost some money, but Kell won some money. 

I'm thankful to be an American and for all of the opportunities I've been given.

Enjoy Turkey and dressing/stuffing....I think I'll have some oysters, soft shell crab, shrimp, and more oysters.
