Wheels: Traveling on Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving. It’s about as an American holiday as they come, and one of my favorites. It doesn’t involve religion or politics or controversial messages. Well, unless you consider the Pilgrims came to this land to avoid religious persecution and the entire holiday is predicated on the idea that the indigenous people of this region reached out to help these new settlers, which ultimately spawned a brave new world.

I don’t want to get all preachy, but maybe spend a couple minutes while you’re deciding to have that next piece of pie and think about the parallels present in the world today — there are lessons to be learned from history, including the way the indigenous people were treated post-crisis.
