Tazhii Da'Aghat
(People Are Eating Turkey)
Note: The diacritical mark is missing under the first '"a," and the "t" is an approximation of the Navajo letter in that spot.
When I looked outside in the early morning light, I was grateful to see a few stars and the crescent moon instead of the usual November cloud cover. My Thanksgiving tradition in recent years is to eat breakfast with and spend the early part of the day with my eccentric group of friends and to take a walk, usually by myself, in the afternoon. I'm not a vegetarian, but I rarely eat turkey on Thanksgiving. This year I bought some locally made bratwurst to eat today. It's not uncommon in Whatcom County for people to celebrate Thanksgiving with a salmon dinner.
Hope everyone has a peaceful day today, whether celebrating Thanksgiving or not.
