Sunset with Pink Pastoral

The setting is the highways of the Arizona and Southern Utah desert. We observe several characters and their interaction with this starkly beautiful environment through their automobiles, their knees, a Greyhound bus, their sheep, an Amtrak, the Circle K. The travellers' lives intersect but never quite connect. They pass over the land but never really touch it, and the opera continues through a series of near interactions until the characters finally realize that they need to connect to the land and to a community in order to truly find home.
