In this issue, we share predictions on Thanksgiving weather, some amusement with turkey trivia, and the annual Guess Our First Snow contest. We already had a flurry in our neck of the woods, but we're still awaiting some real snow that sticks.
If you're looking forward to cozy nights by the fireplace, see our updated list on best-burning wood. Did you know that just one log from the woodpile is enough to keep you warm? Run up the stairs with the log, throw it out the top window, run down and pick it up, and repeat three times. That should heat you up!
Sincerely,
Your Almanac editors
Orchards have shared their treasures,
The fields, their yellow grain,
So open wide the doorway--
Thanksgiving comes again!
