Clemson Sunset

I missed a Clemson Sunset a couple weeks ago (Ben informed me that I should've taken my camera outside & gotten some pictures) - so I stepped out on our porch when I realized how beautiful the sky was. But, the way our porch is positioned I think we face North (I think that because the sun rises to our Left & sets to our Right). I decided that I may get a better picture if I went out to the parking lot -- so I threw on my duck boots & wrapped my wet hair on top of my head & headed out to see what I could see!

I don't have words to describe Clemson Sunsets. Yes, when the sun sets at the beach it is beautiful, and yes when it sets in the mountains (in my opinion) it is even more beautiful, but in Clemson the skies turn a magnificent Orange / Pink / Purple in the evenings & it is absolutely indescribable. I like to think that the sky is a HUGE canvas, and when it comes time for the sun to set, (or even on a blue sky day with fluffy white clouds) God takes out a paint brush. I know He enjoys painting these skies because of the joy that it brings me (well, not only me, but everyone who enjoys them!)

(By the way, this picture does not do it justice)
