Thanksgiving-Don't want to spend it alone!

[Lovinglife]

Hi Everyone,

I will be traveling back to Massachusetts the week of Thanksgiving for a HS reunion and would love to connect with anyone that doesn't have plans. I picture myself eating alone at a Denny's somewhere at a table by myself and that just sounds terrible.

Growing up in Mass that holiday meant so much to me. I even remember visiting Plymouth Plantation when I was a kid. I know that they have gatherings there on that day.

Just looking for a friend that wants to share that special day and it would be great to meet some people while I am there.

Let me know what your plans are for Thanksgiving!

Hope to hear from you soon,
Debbie

Where in Massachusetts?

I was planning on skipping the holidays this year, but I wouldn't mind giving you a tour of the cheap restaurants (and bars and coffeeshops) in Lowell.

Hi YGirl,

I will be in Burlington (which is just about 15 miles away) from Lowell.

Don't skip the holidays! I would love to get the tour...what a fun experience that would be.

You probably know all of the great places that aren't in any tour book. Some of the small mom and pop establishments are the best that there are anywhere.

Burlington is just a couple of towns over.

there are some good Asian places, a couple decent Mexican places, and a Brazilian place. Those are the casual ones.

I am skipping the holidays because those are "holidays" as in, I'm taking a vacation from them this year. If I feel too much pressure to "be festive" I need to take a break. I'd planned to take a break last year but I ended up going somewhere after all.

I reserve the right to change my mind, but please don't think I'm cheating myself. I have done this before and it is very ok.

So this means I have a "date" with you for Thanksgiving and one with Ceoli around Christmas / New Year's. I would have to say that so far I'm not doing too badly

There have been a few already, just not in my neck of the woods.
