Started early. 30 people over last nigh for dinner, and wine...lots wine. Mostly family but a couple of friends. Included were gun toting Texan conservatives, woke Jews from Highland Park IL who were directly impacted by the July 4 shooting one Catholic guy (me) and a bunch of other representatives of political thought…

A good time was had by all, all of whom genuinely enjoyed each other company. We have far more in common then difference. don't let these bitter miserable "thought leaders" tear us apart.
Got back on Thanksgiving Eve from an AMTRAK trip to Tuscon. 48 hours on the train, looking out the window at this great, free country of ours. All shapes and sizes of humans, all colors and all sorts of dress. Time after time watching people greeting people get off the train to embrace with happiness and love.
Our differences make us interesting; but our embrace of the concept of America makes us unified. It is out there. I will not let it be taken from me.
Happy thanksgiving!
