Definitely spring - first bears coming out of their dens and now the sun rising out of the Ocean. Here on Mill Bay we get our best sunrises in early September and April when the sun rises directly out of the ocean. In the Fall ocean sunrises are a harbinger of darker days, but in the spring they mean that pretty soon it will be light all the time. As it is, last night I had to duct tape tinfoil over the nursery skylight so the kiddos could get to sleep. By the end of April we pretty much no longer have night, and you have to get up mighty early to see the sunrise. Or stay up REALLY late.
This is the sunrise that greeted Zoya and I this morning. Patrick
PS The entertainment of last night was watching Patrick put the foil on the skylight. The kids and myself laid on the bedroom floor and looked up at the sky at Patrick covered it with foil and tape. He made faces at us through the window and we were all laughing down below. At one point, he accidentally cut a small hole in the foil and before he fixed it, he peeked through it and only his eyeball was showing. It was kinda eerie...this eyeball looking down at us!! Zoya
