Cooler days had settled in as Fall was giving away to winter, but the city was more energized than ever as it prepared for an event people from all over looked forward to every year, the Thanksgiving Day Parade. If there was one thing the people of Angel City were full of, it was hope and thankfulness for everything they had been given. In many cities, Thanksgiving was mostly just a day to get together with friends and family and to have a feast, but in Angel City it was quite the serious holiday. Halloween was fun but mostly reserved just for the little kids, Thanksgiving was the other holiday, besides Christmas, that really got the town into a flurry of activity. Models of the Mayflower were on display in shop windows, decorative turkeys, Pilgrims and Indians, and wreaths of fall leaves and large cornucopias were set on people's porches and front doors. The miraculous story of the Pilgrims was deeply ingrained in the culture of the town. While the world could enjoy watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade, Angel City put on its own parade every year without fail. Floats, balloons, bands, and local schools were all encouraged to be part of the parade even though the students were on Thanksgiving Vacation. Seraphim High always made sure to encourage as many of its clubs as possible to participate in the festivities in one way or the other. Some clubs joined the parade such as the band club, others set up their own stands along the parade route to make some cash, while others created decorations or even volunteered to help with clean up. Thanksgiving was truly a time for the entire city to come together as one, even for just a few hours. The city was also proud to host Thanksgiving dinners for anyway who needed, not a soul could go hungry at Thanksgiving time in Angel City unless they chose not to participate. The streets for the parade were already being cleared and blocked off for the parade in the afternoon. Stores and businesses closed down but the streets were busy as everyone hustled around to secure good viewing spots and to help make this year's Thanksgiving just as special as the last. Already quite a few people were dressed up like Settlers and Native Americans as they got into the Thanksgiving spirit. The parade would happen in the afternoon and in the evening, everyone in the city would join up in various locations for the Thanksgiving Feast. It really was a sight quite different from anywhere else in the States.
