In 1969 I was still in New Hampshire ~ I didn't move West until the Fall of 1970 ~ i still have my High School I.D. card =8-) .
We dug a pit and lined it with coals, took a bunch of us (maybe 6) to set the tub on top of the coals then the pig went in and was covered , the whole mess was buried again and dug up when it was finished cooking .

A pig? How could you possibly pick up a cast iron tub!!!
In 69 you were already at dads, I didn't get there til 73.

Subject: Thanksgiving ReporMy beloved 1984 300CD Diesel Sports Coupe has been mostly sitting since September so I decided to drive it out to Johnson Valley, Ca. to visit my Son who'd gone out there in his motor home with this buddies and invited me to join them . Pic. # 1
Arriving I found Zach already had the pig roasting . Pic. # 2As the day went on everyone chipped in to help maintain the fire, inject tasty liquid spices, so on and so forth Pic. # 3After close to 12 hours the meat was nearly falling off the bones at it rotated, a thermometer was used to ensure proper temperature had been reached throughout and it was cut up and we had quite the feast ! . lots of ancillaries were provided, everyone ate and drank like Royalty, the little kids have much fun too, SMORES were had for desert . Pic. # 4After eating I snoozed in a chair for a bit then joined the various Families around the campfire with the Children running to and fro, everyone talking about what they were thankful for .Both going and returning the traffic went along at a pretty good clip ~ on the two lane winding highway I didn't exceed 72 MPH, I followed some guy in a Jeep to get better long distance view .Reaching the I-15 Freeway the pace picked up to 79 MPH, I saw no collisions nor drunken driver stops by Police .Arriving back in the San Gabriel Valley I stopped by my Son's place and few his dogs then went home to feed mine and do some works in the dark getting ready for to - day's work .All in all another nice quiet if mileage intensive holiday , makes me glad to be alive and seeing so many young families doing O.K. is good too .-Nate
