Whitingham VT, Morning Has Broken

This is what greeted me, after getting up, and going back to bed for an hour this morning. The sun hadn't yet cleared the mountain in back of the cabin, but it was just enough to set off the beautiful foliage on the far side.

Spent the past 2 days meandering aimlessly (read: getting lost), looking for covered bridges in central, southern Vermont. Found quite a few and will post later. It's been several years since I've gone just to Leaf peep, if you will, and God's recreation is certainly beyond imagination.

I'm often so late to such good pictures - but the wait is worth it. What a great photograph.

Congratulations on seeing an end to the first year. I think I must have lost my mind to agree to try this! Thanks for the inspiration, I'll come back often and more often when If get discouraged.

This has evoked in me such tenderness for its majestic color and landscape that has been created here. The reflection add to the drama. How I envy you Karen..to get lost looking for covered bridges.
