Sunset Sunday – 4th of July on the Hudson River, New York

Last year, with the 4th of July fireworks on the Hudson River (and not the East River), spectators watched two shows. Not only did they get a chance to see one of the largest firework displays in the country, but they also had a chance to see a sunset. For the prized view, you needed […]

Sunset Sunday – Beech Mountain, Pocono Mountains, PA

As summer approaches, the days are getting longer and for many of us living up north look forward to the later sunset. This often translates to more, rest, more leisure, and more time for an afternoon cocktail.

Sunset Sunday – Miami Baptist Hospital

Last Mother’s Day Sunset Sunday I published prose a daughter wrote for her mother. A tribute. This year, again, I want to share a special moment. This time it’s one of mine. On March 4th I didn’t sleep a wink. Actually, I didn’t sleep again till the afternoon of March 5th – thirty-six hours plus. […]
