Sunset September 19, 1999 Monday September 20, 1999 This is last night's wonderful sunset near Prince Albert as the sun slipped in between the cloud layer and the horizon to depart until it would re-appear in this morning's almost cloudless sky. A larger version of this picture and one other will be posted later this morning as well as some other things that might interest you. Our appologies to those of you who tried to visit Ensign yesterday when server problems occured once again. Our DNS server appears to have an undetermined problem that is very hard to track down and it seems to pick weekends to die.
