´Twas the day after Christmas When the clock chimed seven Hastily I awakened To watch the sun rise to heaven Out of bed I flew There´s tradition to brew And stills to show The beautiful view  One click, two Three too few That will do Here they are for you. (Poem by Charie) ***** Images by TravelswithCharie

Every year, on December 26, I've taken photos of the sun rising from my front door. I woke up late this year and missed it but I was lucky enough to see the sunset from my favorite spot in Central California.  "May every sunrise hold more promise And every sunset hold more peace."  Anonymous I hope everyone had a happy Christmas day. ***** Images by TravelswithCharie

Sunrise For several years now, on the 26th of December, I've taken a photo from my front door of the sunrise. Today there was not much to see as the fog was so thick. It wasn't until an hour after the "scheduled" sunrise when the sun finally broke through the fog to light up our day. So nice after several days of rain. We need rain though after 3 years of drought. Grateful for these blessings. “One grateful thought is a ray of sunshine.  A hundred such thoughts paint a sunrise.  A thousand will rival the glaring sky at noonday - for gratitude is light against the darkness.”   Richelle E.

This is the second year I've taken a sunrise shot after Christmas day outside my door in Central California. Today, I saw these birds flying in the sky and made a lovely guest appearance on this photo. "It's the hour when night breaks away from the day, my dove, let me go."
