  We have obtained 11.7 micron and 17.9 micron images at the Keck I telescope
of the circumstellar dust emission from OH 231.8+4.2, an evolved mass-losing
red giant with a well studied bipolar outflow. We detect both a central
unresolved point source and extended emission which is aligned with the bipolar
outflow seen on larger scales. We find that the unresolved central source can
be explained by an opaque, flared disk with an outer radius near 300 AU and an
outer temperature of about 130 K. One possible model to explain this flaring is
that the material in the disk is orbiting the central star and not simply
undergoing a radial expansion.
