Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving week. My mind wanders back across the years and the miles. We’ve made some memories.

Turkeys in Shikarpur

In November 1997 we traveled from Karachi to Shikarpur (Pakistan) and spent a few days with our friends living there. They’d happened upon two turkeys out in a rural area and were fattening them up for a Thanksgiving feast. 

FYI, turkeys gobble-gobble in Pakistan too.
