Canned Ham Travel Trailer
I noticed the unmistakable shape of a vintage canned ham travel trailer ahead of me on the highway as I drove to Thanksgiving dinner. I wanted to get a good look at it and I had to speed to catch up. I just managed to snap this picture as it took an exit off of the road. Of course I had my camera set wrong, but I still got this image. BUM it said on the back.. Bum, I thought.. Hmm,..
I've often felt like a bum going to someone else's house for Thanksgiving dinner. And I do like vintage travel trailers that others might consider junk. I finally got to my exit and left the freeway. At the stoplight there was a homeless guy. As I looked at a text on my phone, he flipped the cardboard sign over he was holding and on the other side it said "Drive Safe".. Is this guy a bum I wondered? He probably lives in a cool vintage travel trailer, I thought as the light turned green and I drove off to get my free turkey dinner.

I think that the vintage trailer is cool, but I wonder what the deal is with the giant BUM sign, too!
Being invited to someone's Thanksgiving should be considered a treat and viewed as not just a free dinner, but some quality family time. That's how we look at it up here, anyway. I guess I should grow up and start having family Thanksgiving dinners at my house, instead of being the kid who's waiting for the invite to come to me. Ahhh, someday...
I guess nothing is really free, including TG dinner.. But I ate a lot anyway.
