Nice picture. I tried to take one on my way to work to email to my daughter in California, but it didn't show up very good. This is a beautiful picture of it and would like to copy and send to her.

Beautiful! We saw this forming late last night due to the fog. We left Cedar Rapids at 9:00 p.m. last night and it was foggy and 13 degrees above zero. Thirty minutes later it was 8 below zero as we drove north.

I've logged many miles through Thomas but for the life of me, I can't figure out from which direction this was taken. I'm so geographically challenged. :( It's a great picture, though, if you're a fan of winter.
