Mural at Fat Catz
This is a mural at Fat Catzshowing a Jass Funeral.
Growing up in New Orleans
Harley Dad saw a number of actual
jazz funerals often done by the
Eureka Jazz Band.
One of these funerals was reenacted in the
James Bond Movie. I think it was "Live and
Let Die". It starred Roger Moore and was
shot in New Orleans.

Eagle at Bass Pro
Our national bird. Shot wastaken at Bass Pro.
On Thanksgiving we
eat Turkeys not the national bird.
It is a good thing that the recommendation
of Benjamin Franklin that the turkey be
the national bird was not accepted by the
Continental Congress many years ago.
Bass Pro
Hemingways is located atBass Pro in Springfield, Mo.
It is our tradition to eat at
Hemingways when we celebrate
Thanksgiving with our kids
in Nixa, Mo.
Hemingways has a Thanksgiving
Feast
Heading for Hemmingways
Thanksgiving is always an adventurefor our family. This year we spent it in the
Springfield/Nixa area in Mo. and in Tyler, Texas.
