One of the net positives of the unexpected blessings of the home by the sea that we found ourselves in three years ago is that we get up and get going a lot earlier than we used to in Blair.
The motive? To avoid the incredible mess of traffic along Eastern Rd. which doesn't clear up until nearly 9 AM ... a subject for another time, I guess. But the "commute" which used to take 5 mins. and should take about 10 mins. often extends to 45 if one doesn't pull out early enough.
So we get to see the sun rise.
Besides the two occasions we've seen dolphins swimming east (the last was about a week ago ... and they were no more than 200 feet out ... indeed the dogs next door were barking at them) we often want to just sit and drink in the beauty of the early morning over the sea. Every day it's different - stormy, calm, turquoise, orange, rose - never the same two days in a row.
This is the time of year when the sunrises are the most spectacular for some reason ... I guess it's about halfway through the winter to summer arc travelled by old sol.
Here are three samples of the view looking east ... click on them for full size images ... well worth the effort.
Enjoy!
