    My wife and i will be alone. We will trade some side dishes with a couple up the street just for pseudo get together. They are in their mid 80s and are being cautious.

    Hope everyone can make the best of a bad situation this year and enjoy the day as much as possible.

    We put the turkey in an herb brine today and will begin smoking it with a small venison roast on the Weber Smoky Mountain smoker tomorrow morning. We always prepare a traditional turkey dinner with all the accouterments. Since moving to the cabin a few years ago our Thanksgiving has been my wife and I and our good neighbor Charlie. Lots of leftovers are worth the work. Smoked turkey pics coming tomorrow in the smoker thread.

    He apologizes, after being caught. For the politicians and elite, it's ok. The common peon, here's your fine for violating our orders. Of course he will face minimal repercussions from anyone on the city council. Let along the voters.

    eh, once again I don't base my decisions on what the state does or does not want me to do. Likewise, I'm not 'protesting' by doing the opposite. Just do what is smart in your individual circumstances, and realize it is real. I've got a sister sick now, aunt just passed away, uncle in the hospital, no f'n way am I risking more family lives by bringing everyone in a tight room in the middle of this. All they have to do is wait a few weeks, and this too shall pass. I wouldn't let any of them ride a roller coaster with 1/200 chances of death either, and the vast majority (including myself) have close association with at risks that would most likely get it if we do. Polis isn't going to see if I do or do not give a shit what the state says, it's not like the British are going to drive through the streets to determine pockets of resistance from the king.

    I will be delivering some of my normal food so they don't miss out.

    YMMV. good luck with each of your respective holiday plans.

    A few weeks?
    Colorado has been under restrictions of some sort for the better part of a year at this point. It will not be a few weeks to normal.

    8 weeks out to government employees having vaccine options and probably about 12 weeks for the general public. Which will also coincide with the exit of winter... even with low uptick, spring will see such a dramatic reduction in cases that it will be stupid to maintain further measures going forward, except to encourage voluntary vaccination from any of the available options. that doesn't mean the state won't mandate something, but once again, who cares? The risk will be severely reduced at that point to not overly worry about it anymore.

    While the possibility of people getting a vaccine (not a cure) The issues already being raised around 1 pharma's results. Should cause concern for those who will be among the first selected for a shot. While this is going on, i received an email from the VA, saying there were looking for volunteers for a trial run of a vaccine.
