Sunrise, Assateague

When you look directly west over a great lake or ocean, you see great sunsets. Lake Michigan near my hometown of Holland, MI, is famous for that.

Here on Assateague Island off the coast of Maryland, you face east and see great sunrises. I got up at first light, about 5:15 a.m., to search for my daughter Lydia's pink Samsung digital camera. It fell out of her sweatshirt pocket while she was playing on the beach last night. She got it for her 11th birthday in April and was quite tearful when she realized it was gone. I didn't find the camera, but I did get to see the sun rise up out of the Atlantic Ocean.

Now that I've had my first cup of coffee, I think I'll get some clean clothes out of the tent and go take a shower.
