It is Thanksgiving week! Among many, many other things, I'm thankful for vacation days, one of which I'll be taking this week. Because of that, here's the abbreviated holiday line-up.

On Monday, we'll have open phones for a bit, and then at 8:30 we'll have special guest New West Medicare specialist Jim Driscoll.

On Tuesday, we will have a mix of open phones and special guests. At the start of the show we will talk about the new winter Farmer's Market in Missoula. Then at 8:30, we'll discuss pre-k education as an element of the upcoming legislative session with advocates from the Montana Budget and Policy Center.

On Wednesday through Friday, we will have a bit of hiatus on Talk Back for Peter and I to spend time with our families. Sorry for the delay, if you really want commercialization over Thanksgiving, I hear both Wal-Mart and Target will be open. Blech.
