Ike Anniversary Sunset

Description

Was headed to Wal-Mart at the time for supplies and as we were pulling into the shopping center area this incredible sunset came into view and I had to take a shot.

This was shot on the one year anniversary of Hurricane Ike which happened in September 2008. This was shot in September 2009 exactly one year to the hour when the storm was about to make landfall.

I could only imagine this sunset was a tribute to those who had lost their lives in Bolivar and for people like me who rode the storm out and lived to tell the tale.

Either way, this was one of the beautiful sunsets you will ever see:

You know when you look at the road and the sunset it makes you think about the spirits of the fallen Ike victims taking one last walk to their place of freedom so I thought this poem would fit:

"Even as you wander the road leading over yonder you can rest assured that the view you see now will be even more beautiful once you get to what's at the end of the road and the setting sun".

Shot at Walmart Shopping Center Entrance Road in The West Woodlands Texas.
