SkyWatch Friday



Waiting for the Fincastle Christmas parade to start


The Botetourt County Courthouse was built in 1848; it suffered a severe fire in the 1970s and was rebuilt. The plans for the courthouse that preceded this one were drawn by Thomas Jefferson.

For some reason blogger isn't letting me add a clickable link so copy/paste the link below to see more skies from all over!
