Sunsets in the desert

Sunsets in the desert are so beautiful - the pictures don't capture it, but I'll post some anyway....

A Luminary in the air

One of the things we did at the Christian BOF rally one night is to light a luminary and watch it float up into the air. These are very thin paper bags with a wire contraption at the bottom which holds a piece of cardboard that is lit. The heat from the burning cardboard fills the bag with hot air and the luminary is then released. There are a number of them going up every evening around here - they are really pretty (but probably not very ecologically sound as one came down behind our rigs overnight - the wire definitely doesn't burn up, and on the one that came down, the bag was torn, but not burned up).
