Happy Thanksgiving!

I'd like to extend my sincere wishes for a Happy Thanksgiving to all of my readers. I personally have much to be thankful for, not least of which is for your frequent visits to Scottish Right. I hope all of you have a wonderful Thanksgiving surrounded by family and friends while taking some time to contemplate the blessings that have been bestowed upon you by Providence. In a world where pessimism and negativity seems to abound, we still have so much for which to be thankful.

Please keep our troops and their mission in your thoughts and prayers. I feel tremendously thankful to live in a country protected by the finest, bravest and smartest among us -- the United States soldier. The United States soldier is a credit to our nation and the living embodiment of honor, sacrifice and valor.

I'll leave you with one of my favorite stories -- the real history of Thanksgiving.
