"Thanksgiving Day is a jewel, to set in the hearts of honest men; but be careful that you do not take the day, and leave out the gratitude."
- E. P. Powell
Tomorrow morning I'll be leaving to visit friends and family for Thanksgiving. I know many of you will be doing the same thing. To all of you who regularly visit my weblog, I want to wish you a safe and happy week.
We, who live in this magnificent country, have so many things to be thankful for that I would be hard-pressed to count them all. I know I wake up almost every morning and pinch myself just to be sure that I'm really still here and living in such a beautiful land.
We could have been born in so many other places, in so many other circumstances. What is the miracle that allowed us to end up here?
If you travel, be careful. If you're planning to stay home, be careful too. I'll see all of you sometime next weekend. Take care of yourselves and be kind to those you love.

We travelled a good bit this past week and returned home via a particularly twisty but beautiful route. We saw a huge amount of building and traffic and other commercial concerns that automatically follow when an area becomes popular. I hope the road continues to be hard to travel because if it somehow gets opened up, the whole character of the mountains will be forever changed and we will all be losers.
