Last night as I walked across a parking lot in El Paso, TX I noticed the moon, low on the horizon.  It was just a thumbnail and the sky was a little cloudy. It looked amazing. Mysterious.

 I love moments like that. When nature catches my attention and then holds it.

 It is one of the things I love about my job. Sometimes I can't believe I get paid to do what I do because I love my work so much. I'm not only rewarded with a decent paycheck, but I spend so much time wandering this country that I get many special moments with nature. 

 Just this past week I saw the Rocky Mountains, the mysterious mountain range near Las Cruces, NM, and the moon last night ... and countless other breathtaking moments.
