The weekend after Thanksgiving 2025 is wintery in the Midwest

Posted By on November 30, 2025

Thanksgiving “return home” weekend travel look dicey in some parts of the midwest and could snarl air travel for those who might be flying. Thankfully for us, KDAE are traveling home on Saturday and not Sunday, but will likely face a little weather (since I’m writing this after they left our house on Saturday).

It does feel strange to me that Brenda and I think more about traveling in weather NOW than we ever did? We often drove in questionable conditions to and from our parents with less than reliable cars and rear wheel drive vehicles. Those who have driven in NE Ohio along Lake Erie into Pennsylvania and western New York know what I’m talking about! Maybe it is because our kids are now driving with our granddaughters that we act more like “our parents” did when seeing us traveling in ice and snow? 

We did have great Thanksgiving this year with my brother and his family. It is even better in 2025 that the younger kids enjoy playing together. Very reminiscent of me and my cousins … or Taylor and Katelyn with their cousins … getting together in years past.

Brenda set a beautiful table and still enjoys entertaining in the dining room. We watched the Bengals win and on Friday opted for a movie instead of shopping (Zootopia 2). It is great to have a nice area to walk, shop and enjoy close by — Liberty Center
