- Brian looked at the little picnic Courtney had set out for his Thanksgiving dessert. “What? No pumpkin pie,” he said.
Courtney smiled weakly. “Well, this little picnic isn’t really about Thanksgiving dessert,” she said. “I have another reason for getting you out here alone.”
2. Every Thanksgiving the Thompson family took their turquoise Cadillac and vintage camper out for a fun weekend on the road.
3. Marty wasn’t exactly homeless this Thanksgiving, although her car wasn’t the ideal home.
4. Lindsey looked out the window at her two children playing in a puddle. “They are what I’m most thankful for this Thanksgiving,” she said to her best friend, Angela.
5. Lauren loved being on the trail over Thanksgiving. “We’ll stop soon and build a fire so we can cook our Thanksgiving meal,” she said to the others.
6. “When you said we’d be spending Thanksgiving someplace unusual, I had no idea this is what you had in mind. Whose house is this?”
7. Every Thanksgiving George’s daughter, Eve, came to visit him and she took him outside if the weather was nice. But she hardly talked to him.
8. This Thanksgiving, Darcy felt as if a dark cloud had settled over her and it wouldn’t go away.
9. “I love retirement,” Jim said to his wife. “This has been the perfect Thanksgiving, but I’m glad everyone has gone back home now and we have the ocean to ourselves once again.”
10. Susan loved her little house in the small town where she lived, and she couldn’t wait to host Thanksgiving dinner there.
