Sunrise over Assateague




In a moment of rare cogent thought, we decided to go out and watch the sun rise this morning. I say rare cogent because we actually had the thought in enough time to proceed to our destination in an orderly fashion without rushing. AND with a cup of coffee on our fingers for good measure.



We walked out onto the 1000 foot pier arriving about 10 mints before the big event. We were able to watch the world wake from its slumber and the darkness of the night I've way to light.

I always say that nothing good happens during the middle of then night and so greeting the rising sun is a way to break the hold of night upon the world and bring into the light that which we have tried to hide in the darkness.




It was fun to watch the birds waking as the sun began to rise. I recalled this past summer when we enjoyed so many beautiful sunsets while in St Lucia and St Vincent and the Grenadines. I think I more prefer the sunrise and the promise of the new day to the sunset and the impending day's end.



So here is a shout out to Chris for getting us moving before the sunrise to be in position to document the dawn of the day and reflect on life and the times we share.
