The kids are pretty excited – heck we’re all pretty excited – about the trip. Whether or not we have a turkey dinner remains to be seen but my guess is we’ll go out to an area restaurant or resort and find one there to enjoy. That’s plenty fine by me too because standing in the kitchen all day is not my idea of a fun time.
I found two turkey trots for Thanksgiving morning so I’m going to suggest to my family that we do one of them. The 4th Annual Outer Banks Gobbler 5k & Little Giblet Fun Run will take place from 8-10 a.m. on Thursday, Nov. 22 at Nags Head Village. Call 252-305-1002 for information.
A great warm up for your Thanksgiving feast is the Advice 5 Cents Turkey Trot! Starts at 9 a.m. on Nov. 22 on Scarborough Lane in Duck with a finish line full of post race festivities. Runners and walkers of all abilities and ages are welcome.
