The girls suggested a trip to The Gap after dinner. I made us late, so the light was going by the time we parked in a little saddle along the ridge. VSO set up to paint while EDO scrambled to the top of the next hill. I wandered around with the camera.
It has been a hot summer. On top of that, the Iron County Fair is in town. As a result, I've been waiting in my office beside the AC for September 6th to arrive. The beginning of the new year: The summer motor-head traffic gone from the streets and the sun in the sky for just 12 hours instead of 16.
What our post-dinner trip proved is that the wait is mostly over. At around sunset, and with a few minutes effort, you can be out in the hills again, hearing nothing but the wind.
