This afternoon I began my near-cross-country drive to my dad's house to help with my mom's final arrangements. I don't know yet if a 2.5 day drive is going to be a good preparation for her service or not, but it has started off with a bang. I can't go over the Big Horns without taking time for a hike, and today was no different.... Except for the arrival of a sudden snow storm! The drive continued through some incredibly dramatic skies. Still in Wyoming....
Usually about this time of day the more spectacular sky is the eastern one, where moisture builds up by day's end over the mountains. The western sky is typically only interesting if there is cloud cover.
With Spring come the nesting pairs of sandhill cranes and red tail hawks; gone are the pairs of bald and golden eagles. It is the return of clear light and long, drawn out, luxurious sunsets.
Wasn't quite expecting the sunset sky show tonight, but I'm certainly not complaining!!
Let's see if this post... Posts. It's from my phone, and it's also a panorama.
