    Cold Can of Tuna or Tasty Meatballs? You decide.
    James Robert Duke says (25 Nov '12)

    Thanksgiving Day at the Hilton Hawaiian Village. Sitting on the wall watching the beach activities when I saw two guys, locals, who took out a can of generic chunk tuna. They shared the can and I could hear them say "that was the best damn tuna ever". I couldn't help to feel for their situation. Especially on Thanksgiving. So my son and I went upstairs and made a plate of meatballs and grabbed two Pepsis for them. We couldn't afford Thanksgiving Dinner for the family but did have more than enough Meatballs. I have to say "this was the Best Thanksgiving Ever!!!"

It was the best Thanksgiving for us as well. We invited a very special, hardworking family to have dinner with us and spend time enjoying the UP. This family has seen their share of tough moments...Husband purple heart from IED in Iraq--Wife runs organization to help Vets..kids my own kids' age--we had a ball. Their first family vacation in many years. Their son got a buck while hunting...good people, good moments.
Freedom isn't free, folks.
God Bless you for sharing this Thanksgiving, JRD.
