It’s Thanksgiving Week!*
Some of our readers already know about The Turkey Note tradition, either because your family writes them, your children write them in school, you make children write them in school, or you caught our previous posts about them.
If you are not among those readers in the know, our best explanation is here.
And this year’s best staff efforts are here:

Why not share the Turkey Joy and make up your own Notes? You’re invited to share your best (or worst) ones in the comments.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Born & raised in Davenprt, Iowa, we did turkey notes for years. I’ve introduced them to my Arizona relatives and they cause lots of laughter. I LOVE have all this history about them.
My Dad’s business was Carthey Pertroleum. You may remember it. 5th & Pershing; 4th & Pershing; Rockingham Rd. Ahhh, memories!
Only have one thing to say Joanne
Turkey red
Turkey Blue
Turkey says
“I love you”
Thanks for reminding me of the simpler life we all might remember…
