New Debra DeWit Blog: Plenty of thanks to go around

Greetings and a happy early Thanksgiving to everyone!

This past week was really busy. I was wrapping up school before break and my dad and grandpa finished the rice harvest. Now it's time for some time off.

My grandpa is on his way to Africa to help with rice growing there. He'll be gone until December. My parents, my brother and I will be celebrating Thanksgiving by ourselves enjoying delicious food and hopefully an easy day.

I hope you all enjoy your holiday!!

Debra DeWit: "I grew up in Davis and have been around both my grandpa’s and dad’s rice farms most of my life. My grandpa was the one that started farming and passed the tradition on to my dad. My dad farms rice in Yolo County and my grandpa farms rice in Sutter, Yolo and Sacramento counties. I enjoy talking to my dad and grandpa about their days in the fields and gaining more knowledge about the crop and the business. Currently, my family and I live in Davis, and I go to the high school there. I like to hang out with friends, write, draw, go hunting with my dad and my grandpa, teach Sunday school and going to youth group."
