DAYS TILL THANKSGIVING: 140
DAYS TILL NOVEMBER: 114
DAYS TILL THE BERS: 53


Happy Double Digits July! Today folks we move along and see that we have 140 days remaining until Thanksgiving, 114 days left until November and 53 days to go until The Bers. We move along in our Summer Sweatfest with our next milestone arriving on Sunday. It will be the 50-Day Marker till The Bers and will begin our annual 50-Day Preview of The Bers. It’s Thursday folks so time for our Thanksgiving Thought Thursday below!

When I think of The Bers if I think of one specific day I think of Thanksgiving. I know we talk about it sometimes but after Thanksgiving it almost feels like the holiday season edition of The Bers. I think the essence of The Bers is September 1 through Thanksgiving Day and when that day hits it feels like we are moving into another area than the heart and soul of The Bers.

I always call it The Road to Thanksgiving and that’s what The Bers is to me. After that I am fully into the holiday season, and I look at it very differently, as most of us do. I have to say though I am very excited for those 50 days of previewing what’s to come. I think it’s a reminder to us all how amazing The Bers is. Have a great Double Digits July!​
 
Has anyone heard who will be replacing Hoda Kotb as a host for the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade?
 
I used to love watching the parade growing up, but it seems in the last decade or so it's more listening to people talk and the lip-synced performances they stop for. I guess I never grew out of my childhood phase of not caring what the grown-ups had to say and just wanted to see the floats and the balloons and all the costumed people walking by and waving. But, that's just me.

Agree 100%.
 
DAYS TILL THANKSGIVING: 139
DAYS TILL NOVEMBER: 113
DAYS TILL THE BERS: 52


Happy 7-11! Today folks we move along and see that we have 139 days remaining until Thanksgiving, 113 days left until November and 52 days to go until The Bers. We move along in our Summer Sweatfest with our next milestone set to arrive the day after tomorrow. It will be the 50-Day Marker till The Bers. We know. It’s Friday folks so time for our Fun Fact Friday below!

The Bird Name “Turkey” Stems From A Case Of Mistaken Identity

During the Ottoman Empire, guinea fowl were exported from East Africa via Turkey to Europe. Europeans called the birds “turkey-cocks” or “turkey-hens” due to the trade route. So, when Europeans first sailed to North America and discovered birds that looked like guinea fowl, they called them turkeys. To be clear, turkeys and guinea fowl are two different animals.


You never know what the fun fact will be on Fridays. Sometimes they’re educational, other times silly, and still other times a combination of both. Turkey friends I hope you are doing well on this Friday. And I hope you all have a great day today. Lots of exciting stuff coming up this weekend. I am enjoying another 3-day weekend here starting today. Have a great 7-11!​
 
I'm so excited for this weekend! Today really feels like we are on the eve of a Holiday weekend. And I guess technically we are!
 
DAYS TILL THANKSGIVING: 138
DAYS TILL NOVEMBER: 112
DAYS TILL THE BERS: 51


Happy Dozen Days Of July! Today folks we move along and see that we have 138 days remaining until Thanksgiving, 112 days left until November and 51 days to go until The Bers. We move along in our Summer Sweatfest with our next milestone arriving tomorrow on Sunday. It will be the 50-Day Marker till The Bers and you will check out in the Hang Out our annual preview beginning. It’s Saturday folks so time for the first half of our Quiet Weekend Period. Can you believe the quiet in the air? Well it’s pretty quiet here but you know how things go on Saturdays usually. Lots of chores like laundry and food shopping that need to get done. I’ll do my best to stay on top of those things. And then we’re celebrating my mom’s birthday all weekend. It should be a mostly laid-back and fun family weekend which I will take any day over a crazy running around weekend. Turkey friends I wish you the best this Saturday and I hope your weekend is going well so far. Make the most of it on this Saturday. Hard to believe the 4th of July is over a week gone isn’t it? But in some ways I do miss it very much. It was a fantastic day and time of year. Turkey friends enjoy your day today. I hope you are doing well. Have a great Dozen Days Of July!​
 
DAYS TILL THANKSGIVING: 137
DAYS TILL NOVEMBER: 111
DAYS TILL THE BERS: 50


Happy July Teens! Today folks we move along and see that we have 137 days remaining until Thanksgiving, 111 days left until November and 50 days to go until The Bers. We move along in our Summer Sweatfest with our next milestone arriving today here with the 50-Day Marker till The Bers. Obviously, we know what that means so check the Hang Out and see if you want to follow along the next 50 days in this excellent annual tradition on MMC. Our next milestone folks will be the 100-Day Marker till November which is 11 days from now so we get a break from milestones. It’s Sunday folks so time for the 2nd half of our Quiet Weekend Period. I am looking forward to that and I know many of you are as well. It’s been a hot and humid week here. And it looks to be getting even hotter coming up this week for several days but really it’s the humidity that makes the difference. I think that’s what really slows down the summer but in a good way makes me feel like we can really enjoy these next 50 days in our Preview of The Bers. Turkey friends enjoy your Sunday no matter what your plans are. I hope you have a good one. I am ready to enjoy it and am ready to make the most of my Sunday. Heading to brunch early this afternoon. Have a great July Teens!​
