…on these photos from my Thanksgiving Day celebration.
So, I had reserved a table at the Arizona Resort in advance. Arrived to find this. Wasn’t sure if they were talking about me or a McDonald’s dessert…
My guests for the meal, Ester, Cherry and Marissa…
The food was all surprisingly good, even by Arizona’s high standards. They had both baked and deep fried turkey and all the side dishes were delicious as well. Yeah, some of my favorite TG standards weren’t there, like candied yams and green bean casserole, but what are you gonna do? My only real complaint was there was no dessert included. I could have gone for some pumpkin and/or pecan pie!
When we finished our meal we headed out to the Arizona floating bar for some liquid refreshments…
Life is good…
…and so were the views. On Wednesday I was up on top of that mountain looking down at the bay and on Thursday I was looking up to where I’d been.
Sometimes life’s a beach…
We enjoyed a few hours on board…
I’m not saying I got a little drunk or anything…
…but I did see the sun go down…
…and the moon come up!
After we left Arizona it was on to our regular karaoke (videoke in local parlance) joint to sing our drunken hearts out. It was a damn fine day. I went home comfortably numb and feeling thankful.
There is no pain you are receding
A distant ship smoke on the horizon
You are only coming through in waves
Your lips move but I can’t hear what you’re saying
When I was a child
I caught a fleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye
I turned to look but it was gone
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child is grown
The dream is gone
I have become comfortably numb.
Great vistas and great-looking food. Looks to have been a fun time.
