Thanksgiving at Vern's

After delivering my four stops in the Phoenix area on Wed. I returned to the Flying J truck stop where I spent the night relaxing in my truck. On Thursday morning I called my buddy Vern and got directions to where I could park my truck near his house. When I got there I was met by his girlfriend Constance who gave me a ride back to the house while Vern finished his shower.

It was Vern,Constance,his mother and there four kids, 3 girls and one boy ages 2-7. While we were waiting on the food to finish we took the kids to a local park to play and then Vern and I went back to see my new truck and we sat and had trucker talk for awhile. After his mother called and said the turkey was done we went back to the park,picked everyone up and headed back to the house.

It was then I somehow became the "horse" of the house giving all the kids piggy back rides and being attacked by all. We had a great time, I love playing with kids. We then ate dinner and I went back to playing games and reading books to the kids until it was desert time,ice cream and pie! After that they all got ready to go to the zoo and I left out for San Diego. I was very happy to be able to spend the day with my good friends.
