Thanksgiving Leftovers...

Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday, whether it was full of hustle and bustle, or if it was perfectly quiet. Even though the poem below is a few days late, I thought it was appropriate as we heat up our leftovers for lunch today!

TWAS THE NIGHT OF THANKSGIVING, BUT I JUST COULDN'T SLEEP.

I TRIED COUNTING BACKWARDS, I TRIED COUNTING SHEEP.

THE LEFTOVERS BECKONED - THE DARK MEAT AND WHITE,

BUT I FOUGHT THE TEMPTATION WITH ALL OF MY MIGHT.



TOSSING AND TURNING WITH ANTICIPATION, THE THOUGHT OF A SNACK BECAME INFATUATION.

SO, I RACED TO THE KITCHEN, FLUNG OPEN THE DOOR, AND GAZED AT THE FRIDGE, FULL OF GOODIES GALORE.

GOBBLED UP TURKEY AND BUTTERED POTATOES, PICKLES AND CARROTS, BEANS AND TOMATOES.



I FELT MYSELF SWELLING SO PLUMP AND SO ROUND, 'TIL ALL OF A SUDDEN, I ROSE OFF THE GROUND.

I CRASHED THROUGH THE CEILING, FLOATING INTO THE SKY, WITH A MOUTHFUL OF PUDDING AND A HANDFUL OF PIE.

BUT, I MANAGED TO YELL AS I SOARED PAST THE TREES....

HAPPY EATING TO ALL - PASS THE CRANBERRIES, PLEASE.

MAY YOUR STUFFING BE TASTY,

MAY YOUR TURKEY BE PLUMP.

MAY YOUR POTATOES 'N GRAVY HAVE NARY A LUMP.

MAY YOUR YAMS BE DELICIOUS.

MAY YOUR PIES TAKE THE PRIZE,

MAY YOUR THANKSGIVING DINNER STAY OFF OF YOUR THIGHS!!

Thank you to Wilma Crawford who shared this delightful poem - JSH Editor

There's Still Time to Get to JSH!

This past weekend, the Watchung Unit hosted a buddy rally that proved to be a great time for all!  Watchung had about 18 trailers here is this weekend and the weather was gorgeous. 
Also enclosed is a picture of the ocean during the most recent storm that passed by....it was beautiful. The weather was perfect for this past weekend, all enjoyed themselves and stayed over until Monday or Tuesday a nice group. People are closing up and it is a quiet, sad time here. Screen houses are piling up in the storage room and lots are looking barren. Deer have been spotted in the nearby woods and the turkeys are back.  - Betsy Behler, Guest Editor
