We had a wonderful Thanksgiving with Yingy and Grandpa Pat. They were able to stay the entire week that the boys had off from school. We had a delicious feast with lots of wine in delicate
new Riedel glasses since the set Dad bought his last visit had all been broken. We had a few close calls with the new glasses when ninja warriors, jedi masters, and karate fighters fought fierce battles in the family room. One night we got a babysitter and went into Charleston for a wonderful dinner at Husk, my new favorite restaurant. The best part of the meal was the gluten-free corn bread! We also went to the
Hunley Museum. The Hunley is a Civil War submarine that was the first sub to successfully sink a battleship. None of the men on board survived and the sub had been lost at sea until it was discovered in 1995. The history and conservation methods are fascinating. Overall, there was much to be thankful for this Thanksgiving!
