Thankgiving Tradition
Here we are on the cusp of another day of thanks and it seems the norm for folks to stuff them selves silly sit in front of the boob tube and watch their muscles atrophy as the fat grows.
Fortunately we have a bit of a tradition, well this is the second year of it. We ascend the Manitou Incline for a cold beer toast on the top then head down to the local pub for a feast!
Last year one of our UpaDowna devout, BLOS (see photo above) won a turkey in a local turkey trot race decided to cook it up and share it with us all and well the tradition was born! Each person usually brings a dish of something but not everyone, but if you don’t bring food we simply ask for a beer! And while the majority of the attendees are without families we sometimes get a few with families in tow. So come one come all and join the fun this year. I’ll be handing out UpaDowna stickers to those in attendance!
