While I’m on a wordless sunset/moonrise walk, I know exactly what I think I’ll want to say to convey the magic, and then when I get home, the spell is gone and I just say things like, “It was amazing”.  “So beautiful.” “Peaceful and lovely.”

My favorite trail for moonlight walking is closed, so we took a different trail and I’m so glad we did.  It was equally magical, perhaps even more so because we were dwarfed by towering cypress stands in a way that doesn’t happen on the other trail.

We had a beautiful view of the hazy moon.  There’s something so special about seeing your shadow by moonlight when there’s no other light around.
