Dedicated to two of my dear Flickr friends whose sunrises I admire so much! To John Varley , who is so busy these days he barely has time to take pictures, but whose sunrises always come to mind when I think of him, and to John Edwards, who is always taking incredible landscape pictures at the crack of dawn. And to all of you crazy nuts who actually wake up as the sun comes up WITHOUT an alarm, I dedicate this picture to you!!! *big hugs*

WHY am I up at dawn?! No, I haven't lost my marbles! Steve had to leave the house for a long drive so I made him coffee before he left! :D

If any of you know me, you know I am an incurable night owl. I LOVE the early morning but I HATE getting up in the wee hours because I can never get to bed before 1am or later. This is why a sunrise is so amazing to me! I never see them!! :D Thus, I am always teasing both Johns to go back to sleep and question them as to why are they awake at o'dark hundred?! :D And for the rest of you crazy people out there, I've given you a fair share of harassment too! :) Don't worry, I don't hate you, I'm just jealous! :D
