Personal reminiscence recounts a quirky evening at Riley's Park with tales of eight Turkeys, a pie plan, and a nocturnal kitchen vigil. The narrator describes a late night walk on Circle Drive following aromas from Getha Fleshman and Alice Hall, observing a guardlike porch light and a wary dog crowd.
A community Thanksgiving at Riley Park featured a large potluck meal with around 150 attendees, organized by Martha and committees. The event showcased local cooks, neighborly acts like delivering meals to shut ins, and a shared sense of thanks despite minor glitches with gas and electrical equipment.
A closing note thanks listeners and mentions late arrivals Rudy and Elsie Steinke from Indian River Michigan at 9 Eustis Rd. The author reflects on the effort of leadership and the challenge of keeping up a strong finish as a big wheel.
