Thanksgiving (1)

We are starting the week leading to Thanksgiving Day. A day on / in which we give thanks for what we have today, what we had in our yesterdays and what we are looking forward to. During other times I would tell you of all my toys, here and at this time it is not about toys but those people who have touched my life!
Almost sixty (60) years ago a teenage boy came home one afternoon from football practice. I looked to the yard east of where I lived and in that yard were Gill Stormont, Cecil Tingly, Dallas Medford and I.H. Terry. These men were building an aluminum boat. I thank the Lord for using the right bait at the right time to forever change the life of that teenage boy.
