Happy Thanksgiving! (2018)

#1

We’re headed out in about an hour to drive to Texas to see the fam. I’m then heading up Friday to Missouri to spend the weekend with Jake at the store, then back to Tennessee next Monday night.

I hope all of you have a happy Thanksgiving! I have to say that I’m so very thankful for many things, and the community here is such a huge blessing. I’m so very thankful for y’all. I feel like I know so many of you. Heck, I’m starting to think I’m somehow kin to @Archie.

Love y’all, and if you are, let me know where you’re traveling this week!

Two young ladies so innocent and so sweet… Have a good trip, Ben!

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

Psalm 95
2 Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms (and with instruments??!!).
3 For the Lord is a great God, and a great King above all gods.

Very happy thanksgiving! @BanjoBen, be sure someone films the picking after the meal, and share the experience with us? I’m (with all of my family) going to the next town up the road (forty miles) to celebrate thanksgiving with the rest of the missionaries in the province. My brother and I are doing a gig there, on banjo and mandolin, and I’ll try to get some video of that up here somehow

Yep it’s a lot of work. I just created a Facebook page for our syrup. You can see the process from growing to bottling, just search Caves’ Family Traditions Cane Syrup.
