I told you we were going in search of new sunset spots and yesterday we did. At 5:20 we left and went through the Environmental Learning Center the back way. Bob thought we should go to the Westby Observatory, but the sun was still too bright. Interesting what a difference the location can make.
When we got to the entrance of the ELC I snapped a picture, but the sun was still too bright. We headed north on #29 and pulled over at the top of a hill. Our neighbor was out with her dog so we chatted a minute and took the first picture at 5:30

We continued north, turned into a field road and went as far as we could. We hiked the last 50 feet to the top of the hill. What a beautiful view!

Now comes the really good part! We ended up in New London for dinner. Wednesday night the American Legion serves B’BQ ribs which are scrumptious! We had a delicious meal and ‘paid it forward’ by buying dinner for an elderly couple who drove all the way from Willmar. It’s early, but we told the waitress to wish them a Happy Valentines Day!
