If you meant mine, it was this past fall. Don't recall the day, but just happened to be in the PERFECT spot for this fireshow. I actually teared up a little watching it :oops: I think EVERY car on that stretch was pulled over for that 5-10 minutes. hahaha

Yes, yours. Sorry (I should have quoted your post the first time). I can't believe I missed that sunset. I may have been somewhere else in the state on that day.

A Copper Kettle Mexican Chocolate Stout and some Belgian Waffles for dinner last night brought a little bit of sunshine to what was, in more ways than one, a pretty stormy week. I thought this thread would be a good one to get going again to share the love a little, especially to those of you who don't have access to Mexican Chocolate Stout and waffles.

Slow day thus far, so I thought I'd post the sunrise from this morning - captured off the Pikes Peak Summit House webcam.
