Hope you-all had a great Thanksgiving Day! Mine was spent with my daughter and with Family and Friends. I feel very blessed in my life to be healthy and alive as a musician in a free country, working as a musician and practicing my faith without persecution. I don't know how long this will last, but I can only hope, as our parents have, that it will continue as it has been. We all have much to be thankful for, even in a real world with real problems and less than perfect lives!

Just wanted to throw out a big thank you on the thanking day for great friends, a wonderful family, a great church family and the many blessings I enjoy everyday just living where I do.

In my world, a prayer was not mentioned all day until my daughter was being put to bed tonight. It feels very weird to me that God gets left out of Thanksgiving so often, and food and family replace what was a very honest, real and spiritual experience when it was first instituted.

So, I thank God for so many blessings I can't get them all out tonight. I am grateful for so many things! Most of all, I am grateful for love in my life and the healthy, great kids I get to be apart of.

I am sooooo very blessed and I know it. Music is an amazing expression and outlet. Playing Sax is still great fun! Working on new CDs is the most amazing expression of creativity and blesses every part of me.

Thanks for letting me say THANKS in a public forum, for God's rich blessings in my life.

I'm done now. I have edits to work on for the new CD that you can read about in other posts.

Should remind you about great Christmas CDs, available all over the net.

I have had an article up on GregVail.com for a few years now called - Christmas Message - Thanksgiving comes before Christmas for a reason. Good Read!
