1) It's 2017, so I'm confused. This is nothing new. 2) I'm making a ton of mashed potatoes, which my moms taught me how to make but she says I make better than her. 3) Which I'll take on the ferry from West Seattle to Vashon Island to hang out with my friend's family. They "adopted" me a number of years ago. Friends dad used to write for Rolling Stone so he has many good classic rock band stories. Should be great. I've done Thanksgiving with them before.
