Well, I screwed up, and big time, tonight...

Maybe it'll be better tomorrow.... I looked out at the waning sunset when I got up here in my study tonight, after dinner... And the sky was brilliant! Such colors! Great clouds! *sigh* I hope it'll do it the same tomorrow.... And I'll get down to the beach for some pics........ It has been waaay too long, I think...

10. Oh, no, no beach house for me!

If that had been the case, I would have been out taking pictures like crazy! I live about a mile and a half from the beach... And in the time it would have taken to get down there and get parked and so on... The clouds would have disappeared, and their colors with them... I really have to plan this stuff...

4. I finally got greedy and took my camera out to get images

of the magnificent ravens that hang out all along our beach walk. Someone leaked my intention because there wasn't ONE raven out, anywhere for the last two days. lol Maybe they were just smarter than me, and staying out of the sun for now. :)

17. My dear ih8thegop!

I hear ya! Many times I've wished I had it with me! Now, tonight, I could have taken some pics from here, from my house.... I've done that before, and they turn out OK....just not as good as down by the beach... There are too many wires in the way here..... But of course, not down by the water! :hi:

18. Now Peggy- don't beat yourself up

Edited on Sun Jul-15-07 09:22 AM by blondie58 these kind of special sunsets happen when you least expect it. You never know when God will throw an extra pretty one out there- or maybe YOU do!There will be more. And perhaps it will be the inspiration for a new poem. "Sunsets are so beautiful that they almost seem as if we were looking through the gates of Heaven.” John Lubbock

19. Gosh.

I thought a dead intern was found in your office, and that it would ruin your chances of ever having a morning show on MSNBC. Or not. :hi:

I don't know whether to laugh or be scared! Dead interns or not, I don't think I'll ever have a morning show on MSNBC! :rofl:
