Narrator : [narration as John 'John Boy' Walton, Jr. reading from his journal] Next to Christmas, I suppose you'd have to say that Thanksgiving was our favorite time of the year. We may have been poor in worldly possessions but, at Thanksgiving, more than any other time, I think we knew, we really knew, how great was our abundance. It wasn't until the cold November of my eighteenth year, however, that I fully understood what abundance meant. It was a time of terrible questioning for all of us and when it was over we all knew a bit more about Thanksgiving.
