Did you know that George Washington was the first President to write a proclamation for Thanksgiving? President Lincoln took steps to make Thanksgiving a permanent federal holiday.

  3. Happy Thanksgiving. As you no doubt realize, this holiday is not one we celebrate here in New Zealand. But I'm sure that any people living here from USA will be having their own celebrations.
