Beautiful Summer Morning

Today I watched the sun rise from bed.  Unable to sleep anymore I got up and went for my walk.  The morning had a cool breeze from the south which was a wonderful change from the muggy heat we have been experiencing this last week.  The temperature has not been super hot but the humidity has been high.  I just got back in from working outside, something I have not been able to do for many weeks.  That is how nice the temps are right now.  AH.... if only it would last.  But given that its July 17th and this summer has been particularly hot, I will gladly and gratefully take it.  :)

As the sun rose it shot out these bands of light.  I tried to capture them in these photos.  Hope you have a wonderful day! :)
