30 Days (or so) of Thankfulness - Day 10

Today I was thankful that's it's FRIDAY! TGIF. Every week. :)

I'm also thankful for the song below. My Dad introduced me to it one of the first times we moved away, and it's always spoken home to me (we used to sing it as we drove over the border whenever we came back to visit ;D). I am so very thankful to live in North Carolina. Throughout all our moves, I've always had NC to hang on to, and we've always come back. Whenever I hear this song, it makes my heart long for my homestate, and I am so grateful to have been born in such a beautiful place, to have this land in my bones, my roots running deep through sandy soil of cotton fields and wind-swept sand bars of the Outer Banks and among the thick green forests down to the Appalachians' stony heart. I think everyone has a special place that they are bound to, no matter how often or far they roam... and this is mine.
