Tonight's Deck View

Another dramatic sunset sky

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.

Evening Glow

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.

Longshadow Cabin

The Sunset is playing tricks again

These ultra low light rays might trick one into thinking it's early fall out at the cabin. It's mid-February, but I like the effect just the same.

Sunset Surprise

Wasn't quite expecting the sunset sky show tonight, but I'm certainly not complaining!!

Quarter-mile Shadows

These are the longest evening shadows I've seen at the cabin!

Full Moon + Alpenglow = Serenity

Let's see if this post... Posts. It's from my phone, and it's also a panorama.

After a bit of traveling, this is sure nice to come home to.

I thought skies like these only happened in the movies...

... specifically, post-apocalyptic movies. This sunset was breathtaking.

Glad the sun finally broke through!

After a few days of grey clouds, most folks in the area become a little stir crazy. On this day the clouds broke on the western horizon just as the sun was setting, creating a wonderful splash of golden light looking eastward.

Another Beautiful Post-Sunset Glow

Just Another Beautiful Sunset

Bowed Apple Boughs

This apple tree was pretty beat up by the storm over the weekend, but still in good shape. And they are delicious!

Sunset Rainbow

This guy made an appearance after a day of showers, just as the day was drawing to a close.  I really do live right under the rainbow!

Have I mentioned how much I love living in Wyoming?

I mean, just look at the "wow" lines in the sky.  How could you not love that?
