If anyone has nowhere to go and no one to have a sit-down ridiculous dinner with..... And maybe some card games and whatnot, we have an open invitation running.
PM me for address if you're wanting it.
Edit: in central Tacoma area

Very kind of you to offer Thanksgiving Dinner to those who have no place to go.
God's Blessings be upon you.

Awesome offer, Rix! B and I used to do the same when we had a place of our own. Next year we'll be able to do it again. Kudos to you.

Also not in.

I live in Colorado, and got an invitation from a family in my Bible Study class. They have an open invitation Thanksgiving at their house every year. Apparently it is huge - several turkeys worth of people. They ask that you bring a side dish if you can. Their generosity is humbling. My family is going to my in-laws, so we aren't going to take them up on their invitation.

One year after my divorce I was stuck in Pennsylvania on a travel work assignment. I didn't know anyone there. There was a crushing weight of isolation as Thanksgiving approached. Out of the blue, the day before Thanksgiving my supervisor invited me to her family's Thanksgiving. They were a very close-knit family, and I was the only outsider. They made me feel so welcome. That was 14 years ago, and every Thanksgiving I remember them with gratitude.

Rix, I thought of these people when I saw your invitation. That's wonderful that you sent it out! You never know how much you could be helping someone.

I can't do a lot. I can try to do a little.

Very good of you Rix. I'm not in, but in the past have found myself with nowhere to go (due to being either a college student or an Army transplant).

One year my presence actually made a noteworthy impact. As a guest, one of the family members started choking and nobody did anything - they just sat and watched this poor guy turn purple and blue.

I jumped up and ran over to him and gave him the Heimlich and saved his life!

A very memorable Thanksgiving.

You are the man!
