Thanksgiving in Arizona

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner with the family yesterday.  We kept it to the four of us which under the current status of the knee, I think was an excellent idea.  Kent cooked the Turkey on the grill again this year and it was yummy.  We had more than enough food for the fam, but that just means more leftovers today.  We started the holiday season off nicely.  Some Christmas music, a fire in the fireplace(it is not real of course) some EggNog and a holiday movie, Fred Claus.  Nothing could have been better then maybe some snow!!  But wait what is that I hear? The pitter patter of rain on the roof?  It is raining really hard and loud is all I could think.  So what is the natural thing to do, go check it out.  And what to my eyes see, why miniature little pellets of frozen ice I see.  Yes, we have snow.  Well the closet thing to it in Arizona.  What a memory for us native Coloradoans turned Arizonians, it hails on Thanksgiving.  And that is the best kick off to my favorite time of the year!!!  Merry Christmas
