What’s not to love about Thanksgiving? For one day in the middle of the week (a fact which used to fascinate and confuse me as a child growing up in Canada) an entire country of 300,000 million people stops everything they are doing to sit down, stuff themselves with food and drink, and watch football (I’m told…about the football party anyway). So yes, that part’s great. The part about being crammed into a house with various your family members may or may not be great depending, but that’s where the tryptophan and liquor come in!

Also, our Thanksgiving day marathon of top movie and TV Thanksgiving moments, which you can alternately choose to watch whilst stuck in a plane, train, or automobile or, when you need a break from being asked to explain to family members what exactly it is you write about on the Internet all day long. Fortunately! Some of these movies are available in their entirety on YouTube…meaning someone had their family Thanksgiving cap on. Anyway, enjoy it now, enjoy it later and if you have suggestions feel free to leave in the comments and we will do our best to add. In the meantime, have a safe Getaway Day and a Happy Thanksgiving.
