This year, instead of making a Thanksgiving dinner at home, we went to the Salvation Army, to serve a meal to families staying at the shelter.
Besides our family, there was a couple there, who seemed very nice. Guy and his wife, around 40, I’d guess.

Thanksgiving will always be associated with Mila. We got her right before our very first Thanksgiving when we first got here. Every Thanksgiving that she’s still with us (she was 11 / 12 when we got her; it’s been 7 years), is a surprise.

The central conceit of stranger things for me isn’t any of the monsters and superpowers, but that anything of note should happen in a town like that, or that a mirror world would look like an American suburb that you also have to.. drive around in
