Happy Thanksgiving, Cindy!
To you too! Is the turkey going in your wood-burning oven?
Was traveling today for Thanksgiving and saw smoke ahead. Sure enough, someone was burning their leaves. Brings back fond memories even though it’s not the recommended treatment for leaves these days.
I think it’s been years, maybe decades, since I’ve seen someone burn leaves. Fires are always fun, though.
