thanksgiving

Eilene and I ditched out to the northeast for the Thanksgiving holiday, and made the whirlwind tour of all our family and friends. Since a lot of my family is still up in Connecticut, we all spent Thanksgiving day in my uncle’s winter house in backwoods Massachusetts. We then visited Eilene’s dad and a bunch of her friends, who live right outside Danbury.

One of my personal trip highlights was finally getting to meet up with Mike Dodgy D in Bethel. I actually stood in the D’s house and talked to his mom. I’ve not seen either of them since I left Boston in 1999. We ate lots of diner food and caught up on events.

We headed up to Saratoga in upstate New York on the last day, which is where my mom and sister have wound up. Eilene and my mom get along famously.
