| Early morning drive into Indiana |
The four-day Thanksgiving weekend is a work of genius. It’s
just enough time to allow you to fully indulge and then get back on track. And,
it serves as a nice and slow intro to the holiday season. Having learned a number
of traffic nightmare-related lessons in years past, we held off on driving from Chicago until early Thanksgiving morning, at which point the highways were blissfully
free of panicked drivers.
We got into Cincinnati with plenty of time to make festive
cocktails before family arrived, and later we feasted on turkey with all of the
trimmings and played a few rounds of our new favorite board game. Friday
entailed a good deal of lounging around the house, and then a spontaneous trip
to see the Bearcats play in the afternoon. By the time we got back into Chicago
on Saturday, we had just enough energy left to unpack a few Christmas
decorations and start sprucing up the condo.
