To bad I can't sit on the beach and watch the sun rise every morning...work tends to dictate otherwise. However they are still nice to see while driving to work.

Morning has broken!! (what song is this line from?)

The weight of lies will bring you down / And follow you to every town / Cause nothin happens here

That doesn't happen there / So when you run make sure you run / To something and not away from

Cause lies don't need an aero plane / To chase you anywhere

    If one were to judge by the 2 threads, this one and "Sunsets," it would seem PT folks in general are not morning people.

    I said WOW! at every picture; sometimes I said it twice. Since we're on the west side of the island we never get to see a sunrise but have always been awed by our sunsets. We've really been missing out. Sunrises rock!

    Kim, where was the city picture taken?

    Ned, thanks for reminding of us of that great old song.
