Happy Thanksgiving to all of you this year. 2020 has been unbelievable between the pandemic, the politics and the polarization of our society. I thought that it might do us all a little good to hear the original proclamation of thanksgiving by President George Washington to remind us where our priorities should be. I hope this strikes you the same way that it did me, and that you have peace at your table for this great, American, holiday.

While I am posting this about a week after Thanksgiving, I really like Matt Brechwald’s podcast and his observations as a farmer and small town police officer and landlord piecing together a life on his rural land.
