The group shown below has gathered in Memphis for a holiday…Thanksgiving Day. This should explain why I will be unable to research for a new story today.

I have chosen to republish this post written about a Feiertag family. If you place the word feiertag into Google translate as a German word, its English translation is “holiday”. So, I will leave you with this holiday story to read or re-read today.
Also, I will say that in the Schmidt household, once this Thanksgiving Day is complete, I officially grant permission for us to play “Feiertag Music”…Christmas music (although I know my dear wife has already cheated and played such music as she drives alone in our car). I know that our museum has also been playing Christmas music as part of our annual Christmas exhibit prior to today. But this old German Lutheran curmudgeon will permit himself to enjoy such Christmas music starting tomorrow.
