Friday My Town Shoot Out – Thankful
The theme for December 3rd is, in general, what are people most thankful for in your town?
This can be a variety of meanings to everyone. This could be a person, an event, a building, what a group of people are doing in the town, gifts to the town, etc. Or personally, what are you most thankful for in your town.
Definitions of Thankful ........
a positive emotion or attitude in acknowledgment of a benefit that one has received or will receive
feeling or expressing gratitude; appreciative
There are a lot of things in my town to be thankful for. For me, I think it is a combination of a lot of different things for which I am most thankful. So for this post, I made some collages. (For the location of the town, see map at the bottom of the post.)
We’re thankful for the river. Without it, the town would not be what it is.
We’re thankful for the textile/fashion industry heritage, and the textile museum.
We’re thankful for the art museum, the theatre and the library.
We’re thankful for the open air museum, and other buildings with interesting architecture.
We’re thankful for some beautiful parks.
We’re thankful for recent sculptures by world famous artists; and for musical events.
When we’re not busy complaining about them, we’re thankful we have a hospital
(also including a hospital museum, and quite a few pieces of contemporary art);
and a choice of means of public transport: railway and busses and roads.
We’re also only about an hour away from an airport, and the coast,
and the second largest city in the country (Gothenburg).
We’re thankful that the town is surrounded by beautiful nature and places of historical interest.
