Casa Grande, AZ
Sunset from the end of a dead-end road off of the Butterfield Trail exit from I-8 near Gila Bend, AZ; while I was headed for a commercial RV park on Butterfield Trail I joined the 5th Wheeler & Class A RVs which were already parked. [Even though Gila Bend is quite a ways from the Mexican border, there was a sign cautioning that smuggling or illegal trafficking might be encountered further down the gravel road.]
A short while after taking the about photo of the sunset I noticed that the sky to the west was rather orange-red.
Some Sun-Dried Beef Jerkey!! :-)>
Note that the ribs are missing. Perhaps the coyotes had a BBQ.
