The Sun Sets On Another Season..




Today was my last full day to work at the North Rim this season. It was a beautiful day, with a cloudless sky and tempertures around 56 degrees. 

 

As the shadows got longer, I felt a little bit sad that it is over, but happy thinking about my memories of the summer here. 




 
It was a wonderful, almost perfect sunset, with the only clouds I saw all day turning pink, red and purple over the meadow beyond the entrance station. 

 

What a great way to end my season!



 


I won't be wearing the uniform again until next year. And so, we will be moving again soon. In about a week from now, we'll be on way down the road.

Be safe on your way to GA. Enjoy your trip. We are still in WA and the rains have started. Believe me if it were not for the 2 grand-daughter birthdays on the 27th and 29th we would be on our way to south AZ. Not going home to GA this year. Enjoy it for us.

Enjoy your down time. It's a lovely time of the year to travel and since it's post season in most places things are lower in price too.

Happy trip.
