Thanksgiving Day - Padekos Diena in Lithuanian is symbolised by a Turkey.
Its a day of thanks for the bounty and survival that began in 1621, however
was not considered as "a" Thanksgiving Day observnace, but now is looked
upon as where the tradition began in the United States.

In today's broadcast, memories of my first Thanksgiving are recounted.

The balance of the program continues with song requests - more Lietuvybe
That Lithuanian Spirit.
