A Final Sunset

8/10/2017

 
The final evening of our camping trip up north started out without much hope of a good sunset. Clouds started moving in around dinner time, and the entire sky to the west became a solid bank of clouds. So thinking we were out of luck for a sunset when the sun disappeared behind them, we went in to play a game of Scrabble.

An hour or so later, we noticed a pink tinge to the sky, and looked out to the west. A sunset!! The entire sky to the west was bright red. Seems as the sun sank below the horizon, it lit up the undersides of the huge cloud mass, to create a spectacular sunset.....

So everyone quickly piled out of the RV, to sit on the dock and watch it.....

We had had to move campsites the day before, and the view wasn't quite as perfect here
through the trees, but it was still a fabulous way to end a camping trip....

LOL The dolls themselves are in boxes, which go into the overhead cupboards at night, but I keep them down on my bed most of the day so I can get to them easier. I keep the shades down back there so the sun can't hit them.

The props are the biggest challenge as they take up a LOT of room. During the day, they go on the overhead bed, nicely out of the way. But at night, the camper, tent, boats, picnic table and box of other misc furniture gets piled on the front seats of the RV. I sometimes wonder what passersby must think.

It is so beautiful! How I would love to be sitting there with them!

I'm so glad you were treated to a lovely sunset for your last evening there.
