Clear skies with a chilled breeze coming in off the lake. Luckily, that big low-flying cloud mass that was moving up from the south didn’t quite make it in time to overtake the sunrise… I was waiting for it... as it kept creeping closer & closer…

Beautiful clear skies except for a layer of clouds hanging low on the horizon. The temps were surprisingly warm & humid… totally feels like a nice Spring day. Although the clouds will be moving in later with a prediction of rain for this evening. But I’ll take it… a beautiful start and then some of those proverbial “Spring Showers.” And you know what those bring?!!!!
Another beautiful sunrise along the lakefront.
Sure the headwinds made it a little challenging, but the clouded drama made it all worthwhile.
Early morning colors splashed across the clouds… but a few too many for the sun to shine through. Little peeks here & there… but mostly clouds. Quiet & still… and surprisingly warm.
With plenty of clouds this morning, I thought there was great possibility for a stunning colorful sunrise. Instead… we got some splashing good fun! The color never quite made it through the clouds, but we did get a lot of waves crashing in along the lakefront. Another start to another beautiful day… great fun either way!!!
Another beautiful start to another beautiful day. The forecast says rain is on the way later tonight… all the more reason to be outside soaking in a colorful sunrise when you can!!!
What a difference a day makes!
With bright, clear blue skies yesterday… this morning was full of clouds. Quite the opposite. Lots of potential for some sunrise colors… but instead we only had a momentary flash of sun… and then right back to CLOUDS!!!
Another beautiful morning with a wonderfully colored cloud show! Sure it was fleeting… and short… as the sun went behind the clouds & quite possibly won’t be seen again for the rest of the day!
A beautiful morning glow as clouds layered across the sky. Soon enough the clouds took over for most of the day… only breaking briefly for some late afternoon sunshine!
