Thanksgiving day

Everyone, have a happy Thanksgiving! After breakfast this morning at St. John’s medical Center I will be at the restaurant Back On Broadway for a Thanksgiving dinner. I is sponsored by the city of Santa Monica and served in a nice restaurant. They provide a typical Thanksgiving dinner. There will be people there that I kmw. I will wish and be with family members, but they will be in my thoughts.
