Up too late with a teaser of things to come.

As we crested a hill this evening, I noticed a woman standing next to her car on the side of the road. A bit odd for the location. But I looked in my mirror and saw this. So we had to stop too. This picture doesn't do it justice at all, but it's the best of 20 shots with my point & shoot camera. A rich indigo sky, a reflection on the mountains of the vibrant pink sunset, and trees in the foreground just starting to show their autumn color. Absolutely beautiful. I love the Rocky Mountains.

Katie and I are traveling for a bit, and we're stopped for the night in a little town about 4 hours from our first destination. We are both too tired and too tired of being cooped up in the car to continue tonight. We'll start again in the morning.
I should be sleeping. But I just can't pass up the opportunity for this.
It's not often that I'm allowed to watch her sleep anymore, especially since she decided to be a big kid who sleeps by herself in her own room.
She's still just as precious as ever.

And here's the teaser.
Katie was so good in the car for hours on end (nearly 12 hours on the road today, including stops.), so we picked up some sandwiches and chili for supper and found a park to have a picnic. She had a blast, and I've got loads of cute pictures.
I'd have had this picture centered better if I wasn't holding her over my head with my other hand. Still, I like the way it turned out.
