looking up and down the beach at sunrise---ahhhhh...  empty...good stuff.. sunny blue skies all day with temps getting up to the mid 50's.. forecast for 60's+ this upcoming week

just a minute before Sunrise
the Sun breaks the horizon
so nice

at the beach at Sunrise-- Happy Valentine's Day

geez..on this Valentine's Day I asked Pat if she wanted to take a walk on the beach with me.. she said no way..maybe going out at my regular time at 630am to catch a sunrise had something to do with that..or maybe it being only 23* and friggin' freezin made her smarter than me..
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY to ALL
