The students at UMass have all fled the campus to head home for Thanksgiving. The normally mobbed and chaotic Student Union lobby is like a ghost town.
All that remain are workers like me and the campus pond ducks.
But where a crowd could be found was at the Amherst Community Thanksgiving put on by The Amherst Survival Center at the Lutheran Church.
I sat and ate with my young friends named Sage and Ursa. "I hate camera flashes!" said Sage.
Of course two Springfield boys will always spot each other in a crowd - Kevin Noonan is not presently on a political hunger strike.
State Representative Ellen Story was among the town dignitaries in attendance.
But the radical political activity was outside, where the Marijuana Liberation Front was engaging in a little activism in the parking lot.
Here's some people acting weird and dancing down by the Holyoke canals.
Happy Thanksgiving Tom!
