Hey everyone,
I just wanted to share my pics from my trip to visit with the Pilgrims a few years ago. There is a pic of me in front of the replica of the Mayflower. There is also a pic of the original Plymouth Rock. As many people have thought, I thought it was going to a huge rock!! It is really a pretty small rock.

So would it be too much to say that, since you weren’t impressed with Plymouth Rock’s size, you are a rock size queen?
Fun Fact: The first Thanksgiving was basically one year after the May Flower landing there, 1621. It lasted three days in late Sept/early October. It was only really done, officially, once. It’s not really done again until 1777. That to was just to celebrate the victory against the British at the battle of Saratoga. It stops again after that once. A few times it’s tried, but it doesn’t catch on. Not until Lincoln is president does it become an official holiday. It wasn’t until 1941 was the date of Thanksgiving set. Not too long after is the attack on Pearl Harbor. The turkey didn’t even become the standard meal across the whole country to serve on Thanksgiving until after WWII.
All this information in my head it probably why I have a hard time getting laid………….
