Nice Thanksgiving Dinner

Our Thanksgiving dinner at the Creek Side restaurant in Campbellsville was very nice. There were more than the 30 people that we heard had committed to the dinner - it was more like 40 - and we had the 2 rooms on the second level reserved for our group. The restaurant had a buffet set up that was identical to the one on the main floor, so we essentially had a private meal with lots of friends. It was a complete Thanksgiving meal with all the fixin's. In our excitement to get to the dinner, we left without the camera, so there are no pictures of the dinner itself - Bummer! We usually have the camera with us as automatic as having our drivers license.

There were a couple of the Amazon supervisors there and they told us about a big cart that was outside the front entrance of the warehouse - loaded with pies for any employee that would like one. Of course, we stopped there on the way back to our rigs and stocked up on several pies - one each of Apple, Pumpkin and Pecan. When we got home, I picked up our camera and headed back to the warehouse to get a picture or two with Hank. Below are pictures of the entrance with the cart outside and yours truly holding up one for the picture:

About half of the pies were gone in just the time it took us to get home and pick up our cameras and get back. In fact, I am holding up the last of the Pecan pies as the rest of them had been taken already.

While we were there, Hank and I took pictures of the receiving area behind the warehouse. There were 3 rows of trailers sitting to be unloaded or loaded with packages to be stowed and/or delivered. The total number of trailers was probably close to 100:

As today is Black Friday, we are sure the activity level is increasing and we will see it when we start working later today. We are ready for the big push. At least we think so.

There was a dramatic shift in the weather overnight. It was 70 degrees yesterday and it went down to 30 during the night. We have a light dusting of snow on the grass and on the vehicles. It is supposed to warm up again in a couple of days so it shouldn't be too bad.

We hope everybody had a great Thanksgiving yesterday. Until tomorrow...
