Sheepshead Bites Wishes You A Happy Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is here, and despite our many struggles as of late, we have much to be thankful for.

We have our friends and family, we have our lives, and we have a bright future with which to rebuild in the wake of Superstorm Sandy. We will be stronger and more prosperous and more united. Much to be thankful for indeed.

We are also thankful for our neighbors, who rallied together to overcome obstacles when no one else would help us. We have our leaders – those elected and those not – who provided critical support, our first responders who rushed to our aid in the midst of crisis, and city workers like those at the Department of Sanitation, which bares this burden with us, and help us rebuild.

Here at Sheepshead Bites, we’re thankful for all of them, and to you, our readers, who continue to make this great experiment in community news for the 21st Century a tremendous success. You are the lifeblood of this site, this neighborhood, and this city.

So put the last few weeks behind you, gather with friends and family and neighbors, eat, drink and rejoice. Have a terrific Thanksgiving. You deserve it.
