Fire On The Mountain

Are The Blue Ridge Mountains on fire?







No, it's just the sunset! But doesn't it look like a fire? We were on top of a very high hill looking down, and here is the rest of what we saw. The silvery patch is a small pond.

“On the seventh day he called out of the Cloud to Moses. In the view of the Israelites below, the Glory of God looked like a raging fire at the top of the mountain.”

Stunning photos Ginny, you captured it beautifully. It certainly looks like it is on fire but happy to learn it was that incredible sunset. The store you asked about is Wegmans. There are at least three in the area and they are now building a fourth.

Ahh the power of the sun and how it is picked up on our earth is such a magnificant thing. You captured stunning images.
Before humankind understood that we travel around the sun and the our earth is round some worshipped the sun for they understood it's power to give light and life to them. Today there are many ways to spirituality. Thankfully we all love sunshine and sunsets.
