About 18 of us got together for chowin' down on some bird, doing a skit called Thea Thanksgiving - Mediating Angel (written by moi!) , singing, playing football, visiting a still in the Catoctin Mountains, and refreshing ourselves with each other and about each other. Here are some pix in no particular order. Hope you enjoy them!

Albert and Carlos. Carlos had a great time and showed us some cool soccer moves!

Carlos Patrick. Patrick enjoyed his break from law studies.

Hannah in the car. These close-ups were great fun.

Hannah and Emma. Cousins who like each other's company.

Emma in the car. We had fun with the digicam.

Jesse and rake. We put the little dude to work. Hey, everybody has to sweat for their turkey!

Danny dives into a bunch of leaves. Hannah gives support. Tom lost his keys in the same pile and Han found them!

Jesse smiles and all the world is well!

Jorge, Amanda and Albert, musicians exterordinaire! (in our own minds at least)

By the old still in the Catoctin mountains. Too bad Maggie and I didn;t receive free samples.

Truly Needies, 1. Here are the hungry Needies, forming a claque and about to demand a meal from the Greedies, played by the other half of the contingent, all as part of our 10 minute videoed skit

Still Needy! Somebody feed this crew!

Crankin out the sour mash stuff. Revenuers are closin' in, but Patrick and Hannah stick to biz.

Strollin' with babe. Hannah looks on as parental units rock on.

The Whelans and company. Perhaps by magum opus of the weekend. Even Liffy cooperated!

Bailey's snout was crucial to the success of the weekend.
