Personnel at Lawrence Fire Station No. 5, 1911 Stewart Ave., gather with family members for a Thanksgiving meal Thursday afternoon. Station members from left at center are John Darling, Matt Dohrn and Zane Morgan.
In the foreground from left, Marei Spaola, Leandra Galindo and William Robbins, all of Lawrence, and Brenton Swart, Wichita, join other shoppers to spend their Thanksgiving day waiting in line at Lawrence’s Best Buy store for the midnight Black Friday opening. Spaola and Galindo were in line at 6 a.m. Thursday, while Robbins drove down to Wichita to pick up his friend Swart, to return to Lawrence to wait in line. “The lines at Best Buy in Wichita were too long,” Swart said. Specials on TVs and computers were the big attraction.
