So THIS is what it looks like there in the morning, hey? Lol...(We go at PICNIC TIME, as you know! HeeHee!!!)
Well, it was worth getting up at the crack of dawn, I see!!! This is so beautiful and so like the Rockies to see a blast light on what the sun breaks on first. Really gorgeous, Courtenay!!!
If Mary only knew how close we ALL came to missing this lake!!! Lol...It was a tricky find but well worth it.
I understand just where you were standing. Over the two bridges and then an about face to the west.
May this one go as GOLDEN as the light, dear lady!
