Sunset

The prairie sunset was spectacular as the sun was setting in the west different hues of blues and purples streaks of pinks and red deep on the far horizon yellows, gold and bright orange the last of the sun's evening glow all the colours of the rainbow brightly displayed upon the sky as it slowly ushers in the dusk while putting on evenings grand show.

these kinds of sunsets are my favorite thing in nature! Sorry about your son's dog. He must be heartbroken . Speaking of death, Connie's husband just died in his sleep. He had been very unwell for a long time. I think you know Connie Wong, right? Thought I would tell a few of my friends so they can offer condolences.
