vespertine................

This word for the day is brought to us by Mr. Webster and the
Third Edition of his New World College Dictionary:

vespertine             adj.        of or occurring in the evening

as in:

Watching our parents share one cocktail when Dad got home
from work was a vespertine ritual my sister and I enjoyed
while growing up.

  2. Randy,
    I do like crepuscular. I actually knew what it meant so skipped over it. I'll put it in the queue. Thanks. S
