Sunrise Owl

 

For the first time in a bajillion years:

I was ON the East coast~

AT the beach~

AND awake at sunrise. IMG_7687

{I am more of a ‘sunset’ type of girl…you know, a sunset night  owl}

And wouldn’t you know, there were clouds covering THE sunrise.

Oh, snap.

It was still moving & beautiful. Magical.

And it was all mine. 

(well, it was ALL mine, and those random beach walkers and those crazy peeps swimming in the cold water and that bird that kept coming near me thinking I might have some Cheetos….which I did not)

  1. I think you still got a pretty sunrise picture in spite of the clouds. The color in the sky is beautiful.
    I'll bet the bird was disappointed.

  7. Sometimes the clouds make the sunris (or sunset) more beautiful and dramatic - more shapes to reflect the light, etc. And we would KNOW about clouds here! =) So glad that you are having a beautiful spring break. xoxox

  10. Those aren't clouds, in CA it's called a "marine layer". Either way I'm proud as peaches that you gotup early to see the sun coming instead of going.

    Thank you for supporting St. Baldricks...such a great and fun event.

  15. If I were meant to see the sunrise, it would occur MUCH later in the day!

    Those pics are beautiful. Soft and dreamy.

  17. Yay for spring break time!!! I'm with Karen, clouds sometimes make for a scrumptious sunrise/sunset.

    Swimming in the ocean is such a crisp, brisk experience. Better than 10 shots of espresso. Try it, Suz!

    LMAO! Captain Morgan would sell his mama for a Cheeto!!!

  23. Suz, every single day I come here to check in, and every single day I leave with a BIG smile on my face! I just love you!!!!

    (ok, I guess I don't check in EVERY single day, cuz I just took 3 days off, but you know what I mean!)

  24. It amazes me that more people don't steal away to watch sunrise. It's always the perfect combination of peaceful and stirring.
