Gobble, Gobble

While the hours count down quickly to one of my favourite holidays, I just wanted to wish everybody a very happy, hearty, and generous Thanksgiving.

It's that time of year when we can get together with friends, family, or perfect strangers and enjoy the company as opposed to the stress of other holidays. Of course, while we savour in the bounty of hours at the stove and in the kitchen, I find it crucial to remember that not all those around us are as fortunate to have those things we often take for granted. So, please remember to share whatever you can with a fellow neighbour, be it literal or a someone in the community.

Places such as the Guelph food bank, local soup kitchens and the Welcome In Drop In Center are always looking for and rely on our abilities and willingness to share whatever we can and to help whenever possible, and it's quite possibly one of the easiest things we can do for each other.

I'll be back after the weekend with more stories from around the city, including another installment in a long overdue battle, news of tunes soon to arrive, and much, much more.

Until then, have a great Thanksgiving!
Phil
