The holiday season is upon us. From Thanksgiving till the end of the year, we’re encouraged to celebrate the family, seen through Norman Rockwell eyes. Lots of us fit that mold.

Foreign no More. We are a melting pot: Polish, Iberian, Canadian, Irish, Native American- and those are just the horses. Our ancestors came from far lands but we have all come to rest here.
