Thankful for ordinary things

I am thankful for good health.

I am thankful for the brilliance of a full moon on a clear November night.

I am thankful for the hot roast beef sandwich at Janie's Cafe. I am thankful for the green ice tea served with just a touch of spice at Ziggi's Cafe.

I am thankful for the shaded beauty of Third Avenue.

I am thankful for the fat, angry squirrels at Thompson Park. I am thankful for the dusty reminder of Longmont's past at the Boulder County Fair. And I am thankful for the Fair's pigs, horses, chickens and (in most years) the corndogs.
