Just a few days ago our sunset times dipped below 8pm for the first time since late April. A subtle sign that Fall is on its way (because we certainly can’t rely on temperature or leaf color down here).

I generally time my evening beach walks so that I’m off the sand shortly after the sun slips below the horizon. I dawdled last night, picking up shells and litter. Boy, am I glad I did!

The actual event itself was mellow (see first photo) but 10 minutes later, the sun and clouds put on a technicolor show!
