It seems like everybody has a general idea of what the true meaning of Thanksgiving is and why we celebrate. I'm not going to attempt to give a lesson on the "where Thanksgiving comes from." But what I will say is what Thanksgiving means to me. This is a day that has always been important to me because its an opportunity to spend time with family and friends and to give thanks for what I feel is important in my life. I was fortunate to grow up in Montana in a fairly large family which is still very close. Our tradition is simple and seems to surround getting as many of us together.....basically eating, watching/playing football and enjoying each others company. It's close to the last day of deer and elk season so if you haven't filled your tag....it's your last chance. This year, not only do I give thanks for my family, health, and career, I feel extremely fortunate to be given the opportunity to meet each of you and to teach CrossFit. You have all become my friends and I am grateful for that. Our group will continue to grow and I look forward to everybody's continued improvement. I appreciate everybody's patience as we transition into our new building. Today and tomorrow I'm on shift at the fire station. My family is in Montana so I will celebrate Thanksgiving with my second family. A reminder - we will be closed today and tomorrow and will reopen Sat. morning at 9am for a workout. If anyone has any questions or comments, please let me know. I wish everyone a happy and safe Thanksgiving and will see you in a couple of days. - Mick
