Two Michigan Sunrises
During our Michigan visit, our hotel sat on a bluff looking east. Every morning I was up with my coffee in hand to enjoy the sunrise from our balcony. These were my two favorites.

Beautiful photos, Donna! May I ask where in my home state?
Thanks John! These were taken from Petoskey.
A glorious start to the day Donna… the heavens declare the glory of God !”
Amen! 😊
Utterly beautiful. I can’t help but wonder if some of that striking color isn’t helped along with all the smoke we’ve been sending East? 😉
Thank you, Gunta! These were three weeks ago, it was pretty clear when it was sunny when we were in Michigan. We had ‘problems’ with morning fog more than anything, lol.
We had one of them newfangled atmospheric rivers breeze through here for a couple of days. That blew the smoke out, but sent it to the east. I forget about the time lapses here, but then again another day it shot up to 90º… Crazy weather. Totally.
Now we’re getting smoke again from a new one in Calif. I’m getting to recognize the orange tint to the sunshine when the smoke moves in. I truly don’t understand how folks can deal with that sort of air quality. Just keep moving East so the smoke doesn’t catch up to you! 😀
We will! Not heading west again until next year. 🙂
Beautiful! Thanks, Donna. 🙂
Thank you, HJ! 😊
Such dramatic images. 😊💙
Thank you, Irene! They were wonderful ways to start the days (while in my jammies!). 😊
That makes me smile. 😁
😁
Wow, nice shots, Donna! Glad someone is capturing the sunrise while the rest of us sleep. 😉
Thank you, Eliza! If I could only get out the door to locations, lol. I’m happy to watch them in jammies and coffee cup in hand. 😉
Lovely, the perfect coffee sweetener!
Most definitely!
Stunning
Thank you, Sheree!

Perfect add to the quote, Jane! ❤
Oh wow! Totally worth getting up early for! I love being out at sunrise. Hard to get up, but so worth it! BEAUTIFUL!
Thank you, Lisa! I’m with you, and once I do get up, I am always happy I did, I love seeing the sky lighten up, no matter the weather. 🙂
Just…WOW. I’m so glad you SHARE! LOL! I know squat about Michigan.
Thanks much, Vic! It was our first time to visit northern Michigan. Made for a fine time for our anniversary! 🙂
Happy Anniversary! How many years?
Thank you! 41 years
