Magnificent Sunrises

This is such an amazing area of our country to be in - high in the northern New Mexico mountains.  At just over 7500 feet elevation, the deep blue of the daytime sky, the millions of stars at night.  Due to our altitude and to the clean, clear atmosphere we see a lot more than those in the coastal cities and foothills.  I used to go to the mountains west of San Diego to the San Diego Astronomy Association observing site.  It was beautiful there and at 4000 feet it was clear.  At least I thought so until moving to Mora, NM!  Wow, the clarity and clearness and beauty of the skies here far surpasses anything I noticed when living in SoCal.

Yesterday's and today's pre-sunrises were awesome.  The whole sky was red and other colors; the whole trailer was shaded in colors as the sunrise started to cast it's beauty in our skies.
