Thanks Heather, Valerie and Shaun. It’s fun exploring what happens when you try to create what you remember 🌷

Another page in my sunset diary looking west from Truleigh Hill. It’s a spectacular view up there, and this sunset originally occurred as I was driving back down the road. I am working from my memory.
