Today was my last free Sunday before my next solo performance class starts up again next week. What was I to do with all this extra free time?
I cleaned. I know. So boring, but hey, when will I get a chance to do that again? Then I realized that I hadn’t visited a hiking trail in awhile due to the shorter winter days, all the rain storms, and well, I just haven’t been motivated. So today I high tailed it back up to there yonder mountains. And by “mountains”, I mean, “Mountain Boulevard”, and then make a left on Joaquin Miller Road, then make another left into the Joaquin Miller Park parking lot.
I followed Sunset Trail to Sinawik Trail to Lookout Point. A fairly easy hike. I always try to time it with the sunset, but I arrived a little early tonight and had to wait. And boy was it worth it.
The subtle evolution of a beautiful sunset:
I just never know when the sky is going to show off. I have had way more nights where nothing happens, so this was a treat. If I had a better camera I would have taken even more pictures as the sunset was fading, but it was too dark for my little Samsung Galaxy S10+ (in case anyone was wondering about my phone).
Then I walked back to my car thankful for this evening’s sunset- knowing tomorrow night, it’s supposed to rain.
