Saturday Sunset

During our recent camping trip, we stayed in a very high meadow filled with wildflowers that awed us.
But, that campsite wasn't only beautiful by day. It has an incredible view of a couple of towering mountains. One evening, the skies turned pink as the moon was rising.
As dusk fell, the mountains grew darker but the sky seemed to grow more brilliant.
The pink spread all across the sky. The view in the photo above was to the south and the view in the next photo was to the north. Ah, what an unbelievable sunset show!
I won't forget it anytime soon!

    That truly is a fascinating sunset. Such amazing colors! I tend to not forget moments like that either - they keep me through darker moments.
