Stages of a Sunset

The rain finally came to an end, so I thought I’d try to catch tonight’s sunset in the park at the end of the street.  When I arrived, I found blue patches of sky hidden under billowy clouds. It wasn’t long before pale peach… Continue Reading “Stages of a Sunset”

The Grand Canyon

First of all, my apologies to the Grand Canyon. When I did a story a year ago on Favorite National Parks it didn’t even make my list!  (See that story here ) Boy was I wrong!  Honestly I’d only been to the Grand Canyon once… Continue Reading “The Grand Canyon”
