Several times a week, I go for a morning run, usually the same route every day. It's fairly peaceful without much traffic. It offers open views of the Olympics and the Straight of Juan de Fuca with the occasional view of Mt Baker if it isn't cloudy towards Bellingham. We live only 4-5 blocks from the high school, and towards the end of my run I usually do a few laps on the track. The high school is situated on pretty prime real estate with open views of water and mountains. This morning I was out before sunrise in the crisp fall air. The sun was coming up as I was on the track, lighting up the sky in colors from light pink to deep red to brilliant orange. A deer appeared as well, initially alarmed at my movement but then stopped to look at me with ears splayed out fully. Mt Baker was out in all her glory this morning with soft shades of pink setting it off.
I caught a picture of the sky after I got home.
