Enjoyed the show as always, but even more this week especially with the Thanksgiving theme and question asked to all your guests on what they were thankful for. You really appreciate this holiday even more as you get older and the loved ones that you shared it with in the past are gone. I can remember back in my youth when my grandparents would come over for the dinner, watching the Thanksgiving day parades in the morning and the Lions & Cowboys games in the afternoon. My dad would let me and my brother have a little wine with dinner and mom would always cook up a storm. It has been a very long time since those days and I miss them greatly. Now, as an middle aged adult, I just wish that I could relive one of those Thanksgiving meals. I'm thankful for those memories the most at this time of the year and will never forget them......Happy Thanksgiving to all!

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone at Derby Trail. For the first time in 5 years, I will have all three of my children home for the holiday. Mark was honorably discharged about two months ago, and landed a job in Texas, about three hours from here.


I hope everyone has an enjoyable and safe day-be careful if you're travelling.

I give many thanks to my family and their unwavering love, for good times and fellowship of friends, and I do give thanks to this game I love so much. To all a great Thanksgiving, as well as the rest of the upcoming holliday season. I would be remiss if I didnt thank Steve for his great handicapping over the year, it has help put extra money in the entertainment fund and I am extremely grateful. Thanks to all....David

This weeks events (having to put my dog down) have made today extra special to me. Too often we give lip service to the exceptional quality of life we are lucky enough to experience.

Life comes at you fast....I am so thankful for the extent of blessings my life has.

Everyone, has a great day, reflect and be grateful!
