Throughout the afternoon, heavy clouds rolled in over the Palouse in Eastern Washington.  Assuming there would be no sunset, I had already returned to the hotel when I noticed the color of light streaming in the window.  Needless to say, I dropped everything and ran outside.  One small hole remained at the horizon, through which the setting sun passed, creating an amazing sight.  Driving out on a dirt road and nearly getting stuck in the mud, this was the result.
