Thanksgiving Day is a day to be grateful not only for what we have, but also our family, our friends and for the people who have blessed and enriched our lives .

In the community of webcomics, we lost a dear friend this past week, Bo Lumpkin. I have created a Tribute To Bo Lumpkin over on my Bristol Board and Ink blog. I hope you will enjoy it, both in recalling some memories of Bo and also as a reference source to much of the vast creative work of this wonderful man. Bo Lumpkin was actually a nom de plume as well as a performance character and in my tribute article, I speculate on why Rev. Tommie L. Joiner (AKA Bo Lumpkin) chose to create this persona.

I thought about various ways to create a tribute comic for Bo, but in the end, I think Bo loved the critters of Lake Tuberville almost as much as they loved him. So as usual, I just documented how they have been feeling lately. 

Next Tuesday, we will return to and continue our current adventure The Wish Bone.
