Dennis
Gray, By Mona Lease
Hi, all!! I hope you all enjoyed the Thanksgiving dinners with family
and friends. I did a little checking on this "Thanksgiving" idea. It
seems that there has always been a party - if you will - when the crops
were taken in from the fields. Most people had some sort of

Veteran's Day is next Wednesday - as I write this. I do not write these
