Early Morning Beauty

The thing I like best about getting up at 5 in the morning and arriving at school at 6:30 is seeing the sunrise. When I was driving a school bus I saw it every morning and marveled at the magnificent beauty the totally fill the sky.




Looking to the east I see the the light long before the sun appears. When the sky is clear or when the clouds are just right, it can be absolutely breathtaking. I took this picture with my phone camera the morning of Dec. 2, 2008 on my way to Centennial High School to teach the orchestra. It was the day I sang with the kids (see a prior post and pic with my green shirt.)






Looking to the west, the glow of the sunrise on the mountains gives just the right punctuation to the elegant morning.

Life is grand early in the morning!
