We are thankful for many things – not only at this time, but all year long. We have a dedicated team, amazing clients, steadfast friends, friendly neighbors, and terrific business associates.
We also feel very fortunate to work in an industry that truly makes a positive difference in people’s lives by bringing them closer to Nature and giving them beautiful spaces to admire and spend time in.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours! ~Shayne
“In November, people are good to each other. They carry pies to each other’s homes and talk by crackling woodstoves, sipping mellow cider. They travel very far on a special November day just to share a meal with one another and to give thanks for their many blessings.” -Cynthia Rylant
The Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade has over 5,000 participant volunteers, is watched by 50 million TV viewers, and is attended by 3+ million spectators who line the 2.5-mile-long parade route.
2022 is the 96th year of the parade and will include 700 clowns, 27 giant balloons, 30 floats, and a few celebrity appearances. The first parade was held in 1932 but was only enjoyed by the attendees and those who listened to the broadcast on the radio. The first televised parade was not until 14 years later in 1946.
