From 2019…
People’s Pundit Daily:
In the fall of 1621, the Pilgrims and Wampanoag Indians held an event most regard as the First Thanksgiving. In 2019, the nation celebrates its 399th Thanksgiving.
Here are some fun facts and stats to share with friends and family.
The Pilgrims, the early settlers of Plymouth Colony, held the feast over not one but three days. It was an English tradition to celebrate a bountiful harvest. While the credit goes to Plymouth, historians note harvest celebrations were common among European settlers in North America.
Ceremonies of British colonists in Virginia have been recorded as early as 1619. In 1949, the U.S. Census Bureau published “Historical Statistics of the United States” and, on page 25, they estimated how many colonists were there in 1620. more here

When is Les Nessman on the scene at the Pine Dale Shopping Mall for the WKRP Turkey Drop?
We have so much to give thanks for!
“We Gather Together”
We gather together to ask the Lord’s blessing;
He chastens and hastens His will to make known;
The wicked oppressing now cease from distressing;
Sing praises to His Name; He forgets not His own.
Beside us to guide us, our God with us joining,
Ordaining, maintaining His kingdom divine;
So from the beginning the fight we were winning;
Thou, Lord, were at our side, all glory be Thine!
We all do extol Thee, Thou Leader triumphant,
And pray that Thou still our Defender will be;
Let Thy congregation escape tribulation;
Thy Name be ever praised! O Lord, make us free!
Happy Thanksgiving to IOTWReport.com from our home to yours,
AA & Geoff C.
Happy Thanksgiving to ALL and had to share this with you: “Why did the Pilgrims pants keep falling down”? “Because their buckles were on their hats”! Couldn’t resist 😜
