Thanksgiving

[White Fox]

Happy Thanksgiving to all of our Canadian Friends up here. Hope you can all get the snow shovelled away this weekend to get your car out to your destinations! Happy Holidays.

You mean that Canadians celebrate the CORRECT Thanksgiving! Right?

 

While I always enjoy Thanksgiving, the American tradition of celebrating so late in November has always just puzzled me.

 

If the Pilgrims did celebrate Thanksgiving the way it is written in the history books, it would have been on the Feast of Saint Michael to celebrate a successful harvest, not in the middle of winter.

 

Anyhow, happy Thanksgiving!

(Or should that be Michaelmas?)
