Here’s a great read on some Thanksgiving fun facts from a CNN article a few years back…

Check out the photo of the official face of the new Mount Vernon Grand Hotel – thanks to Denny Taylor of MVNU for the picture!

The Grand

Remember that we’re bringing back GO GREEN WITH BIG BLUE ON BLACK FRIDAY this week…listen to The Morning Thing Friday morning for all the details!

Also, we’ll plan to see you at the annual WeRunMV Turkey Trot tomorrow morning, registration at 8:00, race at 9:00.  Also we’ll be at the Mount Vernon Christmas Parade and Walk Sunday – Rachel Radcliff and I will be pushing shopping carts in the parade for the 2015 Food For The Hungry drive!  Bring some cans and/or money to drop in our cart!

Our word of the day is cornucopia – meaning a symbol of plenty, usually using something horn-shaped, to show an overflowing of something good.

Thanks for listening and Happy Thanksgiving!  We’ll be back on Friday.
