Pink Mountain Time

By Charlotte Marion

There is a special time when the solar disc is just below the horizon technically called the Alpenglow. It is more endearingly called pink mountain time in my home. There is more than magic in those mountains. There is no way to capture the beauty and feeling it gives when getting to sit on the porch and enjoy the show with your loved ones by your side. The feeling is here. This is what it feels like. When the fog rolls in it wipes so much away, like an eraser just removing everything below it. The curiosity of the blank page does wonders for giving that feeling of staring at the fog. Knowing something could be there but its just not. The newly perceived base of the mountain now is the most intriguing part of the giant, peaking in and out of the fog, dancing along. You feel like you are in another world all alone with just the beauty of nature and your loves by your side.
