A few miles northeast of you, we had a golden-rose sky with rain. It was mesmerizing… Now, beautiful sun. How lucky we are.

That must have been a wonderful scene Roseanne. Yes. We are blessed to see it and feel it. Your thought reminds me of:

We like these colurs in nature but not in a picture. Pictures with these colours of the setting or rising sun are too often seen on cheap calenders.
Nevertheless, thanks for sharing

What it must of been like for a man taking sunrise photos or a fisherman just beyond the Cove or the school bus driver going over the safety checklist before heading out to pick up the precious children? I know that those who witnessed this first hand, in your area are holding in their hearts a Grateful, Salutation to the Sun… Really, what was it like to stand still, mouth agap, taking in that gift of breath under encompassing, enchanting, eyeopening, cover of such beauty? I know for you it been almost 12hours since you took those photos and I bet you still feel a Wonder in Your Mind, A Deep Breath in Your Lungs, a Fresh Outlook and Heart of Gratitude for the Experience…
