Sunrise Snooze, Moonlit Views
I dislike getting up in the morning just as much as I dislike calling it a day and going to bed.
Today, let’s talk about sunrises. It’s not a topic I’m very familiar with because, truth be told, I’m rarely awake early enough to witness one. If I ever did make the supreme effort to rise before dawn, I can already imagine what would happen—I’d step outside, ready to be awed by a breathtaking display of colors, only to find a sky filled with thick clouds and drizzle. The sun, like me, would have decided to sleep in.
Fortunately, our location works in our favor. We don’t get to see the sunset over the lake, but that’s not a bad thing—the sunset side is rocky and difficult to navigate. Instead, we’re on the sunrise side, where the sandy shore makes beach activities far more enjoyable.
While sunrises may not be my thing, I do have a favorite celestial event: moon showers. On a clear night, when the moon is large and luminous, the sky is sprinkled with what looks like a zillion tiny diamonds. These sparkling lights stretch across the moon’s path, lasting until the early morning light washes them away. As a self-proclaimed night owl, this is when I thrive. Had I gone to bed before midnight, I would have missed this magical sight entirely.
My idea of heaven? Sitting around a crackling firepit on a clear night, minimal mosquitoes, a glowing moon, and miles upon miles of shimmering moon showers.
And maybe, just maybe, a cocktail or two to make it absolutely perfect!
