The Day
This is not a religious holiday it is a friendship holiday and a day to
reflect
Here are some tad-bits from the first Thanksgiving
The Mayflower landed on Cape Cod 11-11-1620
There were about 50 Pilgrims and 90 Wampanoag present at the first
Thanksgiving
There was no pumpkin pie but there was baked pumpkin with butter and
cinnamon
Pilgrim children and adults only bathed a few times a year, as it was
considered unhealthy
Happy Thanksgiving
