The following, by the way, was the sunset 16 years ago tonight, near the beginning of the Moment & Horizon series. The vantage point is essentially the same, except that today the Blue Ridge was lost in haze and I included local Piney Mountain to the north.

I wasn’t able to post last night because I was at a party out in Madison County, near Orange – at Woodberry Forest. Any inconvenience was more than compensated for by their enormous view of the horizon.
