In the middle of an intersection they still have haystacks and corn stalks while right next to that they have garland with red ribbon wrapped around a street light.<br /><br />Nowhere is a turkey seen, however. RIP Thanksgiving. <br /><br />word verification = trimm (evidence that Thanksgiving has been cut short, we cannot even use the full word "trimmings" as in dinner with all the trimmings. So sad).*~Dani~*https://www.blogger.com/profile/17612436784036093853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7697970748959331420.post-61245094044206535322009-11-11T11:37:10.591-05:002009-11-11T11:37:10.591-05:00I know!!!

It's just complete overkill.<br /><br />And then yesterday one of my friends stated on Facebook that she put her tree up this weekend.
