Last month, the Mayos made a late-season excursion to Holiday World, the official amusement park and roller coaster home of the Murfreesboro Pulse.
The Jr. publisher took more than one trip on the mighty Voyage, riding its steep and speedy descent as it prepared to rumble across its wooden tracks, shaking its riders throughout its perilous journey. Holiday World offers two other fine wooden coasters—the Raven and the Legend—and lots of other fun for all ages at its southern Indiana attraction, and just a 3-hour drive from the Boro.

November, of course, is the month of Thanksgiving.
Thanksgiving has become one of my favorite holidays. I try and celebrate a little thanksgiving every day. Be grateful. Identify the blessings in your life. Appreciate what you have and the people in your life, rather than focusing on all that you think you lack. I hear that observing this spirit of gratitude is the healthy, moral and respectful thing to do. It seems to help me stay calm, peaceful, focused and without need. Sure, there’s plenty I do not have, but why think about all that when I can dwell on the abundance of blessings in my life. I thank God for my family. I have gratitude for plenty of delicious food. I get to experience and enjoy many, many other blessings: all of the plants and animals, the sun, the music and more.
Go forth and live in love and joy, with no guilt, worry or shame!
