Yeah a bit early, but tomorrow is likely to be filled with food, wine and football.

So again with feeling to all of you and your families, have a wonderful and safe celebration.

Yup, happy gobbling to all. Just finishing up some baking this morning, 'cause we're not eating until late afternoon (but don't tell Rennie that or he'll be late).

I plan to do my tradition of upsetting my wife because I passed out on the couch instead of conversing with her family. Oh well.

I will. I've been training for the last week by eating large meals. I LOVE turkey.

Spent Wednesday helping the wife get everything ready. Got up at 5:00am today to help with the cooking. Wife's family (all 35 of them) came for Thanksgiving Dinner at 1:00pm. We all ate too much and sat around watching football afterwards. Last of the mob cleared out around 7:00pm. So the wife and I cleaned up the essentials and will probably spend 1/2 of Black Friday getting the house back to livable condition.

Hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving.

Ham, Cornish game hens, home-made stuffing/mac-cheese/sweet potato casserole/pumpkin pie.

Not big football fans, we watched old Family Guy episodes ("family" for a family holiday, get it? /instant rimshot/), and then played Ghostbusters (the boy), Alice: Madness Returns (SWMBO), and F1 2010 (Me) on the xBox.

First time I've had a holiday in years where I didn't have to work..

EDIT: Where are my manners? Here's hoping everyone else's was enjoyable as well!

My nephew discovered tangerines

and flying kites. (I'm particularly proud of that combination of photos. While my sister was photographing me teaching him to hold a kite string, my kite was photographing all of us.)

Cypress discovered cranberry-citrus-walnut relish

and fizzy grape juice

It wouldn't be a family gathering in Florida if you didn't get a household pet drunk.

Sorry to disappoint, but I don't drink; That was non-alcoholic fizzy grape juice.

Yes, I do realize that I just admitted that my bad automotive decisions (e.g. "let's autocross a geo", "I will build a car from scratch out of garbag") cannot be blamed on alcohol....my judgement is normally that bad.

you can buy keychain cameras that are basically the camera portion of a cell phone. add a memory card and you arw good to go. I headr about them on Jalopnik but there's info all over the web...just google "808 camera". The pinhole style lense means they can shoot pretty decent video, too, if you can mount them so the don't vibrate too much. (Some models record 720p video)

All I did was tape a keychain to the string, fly the kite, and sift through the video to find frames where the kite was not shaking around too much.

I've used the same technique after attaching the camera to an RC plane. The resulting video was a little shaky - one GRMer even said that watching it made him sick - but some of the photos from that video look pretty good
