Skywatch Friday-Giving Thanks This November 2008

Photograph Taken at Stuart's Draft, Virginia-November 2008

When you arise in the morning, give thanks for the morning light, for your life and strength. Give thanks for your food, and the joy of living. If you see no reason for giving thanks, the fault lies within yourself-Tecumseh

Please visit Skywatch Friday for more fabulous photographs from throughout the world.

Wow. Looks like a live volcano!

And for not the first time this Thanksgiving, I'll say... those folks that were here when we got here? Now they knew how to be thankful.

We could learn a lot from them.
