Sunsets are one of the most beautiful things to watch. Most of th time, watching the sunset over the fields, we can watch a few deer grazing, or turkey's walking through. Sometimes we'll see a fox, or a coydog. One time, I was lucky enough to see a wolf. It was just a lone timber wolf. Large, grey, and prowling. He was gorgeous, majestic, and ever searching. Then, one morning, not that long ago, I heard a howl. It had been 7 years since there had been any trace of a wolf. We normally never have more than one, but I swear I heard two.
It was a dark starry night. The air was clear, and the trees were quiet. Then, out of the night, a howl broke the silence. My dog was on full alert, the howl recieving her full attention. She cocked her head, and pointed with her no, but stayed by me, in case the intruder decided to come near.
Sunsets on my road are amazing. Living in the country is probably the best hing on earth.

I just wanted to make a quick emphasis on a part of this selection that struck me, I too Enjoy watching sunsets being a teenager from New York City, I don't get a chance to experience them in clear view as often unless I am on the lower East side of Manhattan, or on the river side, the tall sky scrappers add a sort of appeal to the sky yet they sometimes deprive of us of the vibrant and invigorating colors of the setting sky at dusk. I'm actually putting a selection up on my blog regarding sunsets, of which I've been working on for a while. As far as wolves go I have yet to experience one up close and personal except for maybe the zoo's and in art exhibits, I would love to see one.
