Happy Thanksgiving Day to my fellow Canadians and anyone else that may be celebrating Thanksgiving today!
This vintage Thanksgiving postcard features an illustration of two bunnies on a hill overlooking a field of stooks of hay and pumpkins. The message on the card is:
THANKSGIVING HAPPINESS
In the pumpkins golden glow
Shines a wish for you,
For Thanksgiving happiness
And many blessings too.

absolutely beautiful…many thanks for sharing this one!
You’re welcome Penny. I’m happy to know you like it! 🙂
Thanks so much, Julie! Today is our Thanksgiving here in Vancouver BC. I just made the fresh cranberry sauce, and nearly ready to put in the fresh turkey. Thanks for all your lovely images you post.
Sounds delicious Loretta! We had our big Thanksgiving family dinner at my daughter’s home yesterday. It’s nice to know you are enjoying the vintage images. 🙂
I didn’t realize you were Canadian! Wonderful!
Yes, Loretta, born and raised in Canada. 🙂 I’ve lived in Alberta most of my life but spent about 7 years in the beautiful, small town of Fort St. James, B.C. in the 1980s. If I could have transported all of my family members there, it would have been the perfect place to live, like forever, but I’m a family girl so I was drawn back to where they were/are.

I’ve never been to Fort St James, but have inlaws in Barriere BC, and last year we took a wonderful road trip to visit Calgary AB for a genealogy conference, and Trochu and Three Hills, where my paternal Grandpa worked on a ranch. He married his first wife either in AB or SK. He re-married and moved to Spalding SK after his first wife and son died, and there raised a family until 1941, when they decided to relocate to Vancouver BC and so here I was born and raised. I loved the prairies as we had a chance to also visit Spalding. Alberta is gorgeous.
