SOUTH DAKOTA MOONRISE AND MOONSET




We have been fortunate and blessed to have lived in beautiful places. The Black Hills of South Dakota blend the golden desolate prairie with the hilly evergreen lansdscape. The moon was full last week, rising on this day shortly after 4 in the afternoon. The remaining sunlight robbed it of its splendor. By the time I got home, the moon had brightened and it was now peaking through the pine trees in our back yard. The next morning, its brilliance was diluted by the colors of dawn. JIR
