dusk till dawn

i snapped this the other night as i was out for a stroll around the neighborhood. the observant iowa citians among you will notice Seashore Hall in the lower right of the picture.

this morning, looking east from our backyard.

"What were the skies like when u were young?
They went on for ever and they when I we lived in Arizona and the skies
always had little fluffy clouds and err.. they were long and clear and there
were lots of stars, at night.
And errr when it rain it would all turn, it, they were beautiful, the most
beautiful skies as a matter of fact, the sunsets were purple and red and
yellow and on fire and the clouds would catch the colours everywhere,
thats, its neat because I used to look at them all the time when i was
little. You don't see that."
