A Little Taste of Home

There are many things about being so far away that make one miss home, but the holidays are a surefire place to look.  So it made life a little bit easier when a group of us were able to celebrate Thanksgiving right.

That's right we had turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy, cranberries, mixed vegetables, stuffing and pumpkin pie (not in the photo).  Wow, was that a treat.  And it was all made possible by a private restaurant on a nearby U.S. military base. 

And thanks to our gracious hosts, Brian and Whitney, who welcomed us over, picked up the food and organized everything, we had a fantastic Thanksgiving meal.
