On a dark desert highway ...


I couldn't resist wearing the T-shirt and taking a walk down a "dark desert highway" by my house.



I don't like the way the telephone poles and wires stand out against the sunset, but they do add a certain desolate feeling that goes with the mood of the song.


The sky was crazy that night, with swooping grey clouds and a fire on the horizon. It was warm, almost 90 degrees, but with that "cool wind in my hair" it was comfortable.

The last photo is from my front courtyard the next night. (Those are the same telephone poles.)



Have a colorful day

Loving the sunset colors and the dark silhouettes! Great t-shirt too... goes well with the theme of your post, and it's too cute! On another note, just saw that you have an excessive heat warning coming... stay cool.
