New Year’s Day Sunrise
With 2013 coming to a close we were treated to a nice sunrise this morning. As I exited the tower to do my observation the sky glowed red. By the time I ran inside to grab my camera, it had morphed into a glowing horizon of vibrant color. While it didn’t last long as we eventually returned to the fog, it ended this great year nicely. Now it is time for good food with new and old friends to ring in 2014 from the top of New England.
