Dear Readers;

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you in the USA & around the World who read this blog!
We ALL have much for which to be thankful, wherever you reside.
I sincerely thank all of you for your interest in local stories printed here.
The numbers of "daily visitors" indicate there is an ever-increasing interest in this blog.
For that, I am grateful. And all by word of mouth with little advertising.
Even the local newspaper publisher wrote me and quoted from Yelm's first community blog,
indicating he reads these pages as well!

This is a fascinating look at the History of the American Thanksgiving from the History Channel. May you & your family be blessed with health, joy & laughter this holiday season!
