Last year Fireboy and I arrived in late October for our first six-month stay in TV. We didn't know a darn soul when we arrived.
We had Thanksgiving dinner at Palmer last year (we had people visiting us); and we all quite enjoyed it. We booked at the last minute, so ended up eating later which was quite OK with us.
This year my good friend (that I met through TOTV) has invited us to her home for Thanksgiving turkey.
Just another little TOTV miracle.
