Speechless Sunday: SANDPOINT SUNRISE...

By
Real Estate Agent with Coldwell Banker Resort Realty, Sandpoint, Idaho SP37235

SANDPOINT SUNRISE...6:25 a.m.

When I wake up in the morning and see something like this, my first thought is, "This can't be real."  When I realize it is, I find myself crawling on the rocks trying to capture it.  As wonderful as this picture is (shot with an Olympus Camedia C-3030 camera...$150.00), it cannot give justice to the "real" beauty the universe decided to unleash this morning.  

In the words of Tom Robbins..."When a person accepts a broader definition of reality, a broader net is cast upon the waters of fortune."

Thank you Sandpoint, Idaho.  The world is a good place after all...Sunrise in Sandpoint - Bitterroot Mountains

Hi Kent, I think you captured it perfectly!  Very beautiful.

Now on to the other photo, it looks like another precious life has entered into the world.  Congratulations!  That's a great photo of you and (I presume) your wife. You both look very happy!

Great picture. I am sold. I know it's cooling off up there and that makes it a great time to be there.

I love your photo, your quote and the fact that even the "cheap" camera technology is so advanced we can capture stunning pictures like that and upload them to our computers in a blink.

Brenda - Thanks for stopping by.

Kathleen - I know you would like it!

Tony & Darcy - It was pretty inspiring.  For me to be crawling around on the rock shoreline at 6:20 a.m., I had to be pretty psyched by it.

Yvette & Dennis - Happy to share!

Hey Janna - Are you familiar with Tom Robbins?  He's full of great quotes.  He's the author of very funny & insightful books including "Another Roadside Attraction" & "Even Cowgirls Get the Blues".

GOOD MORNING KENT!  I don't think any camera can give justice to what our eyes see - and not just what we see - it's how we look at it!  Now about crawling around those rocks that early in the morning ...!  Happy Monday! -- Gab

Hey Gaby - You don't want to know what I'm capable of that early in the morning.  Happy Monday to you!

Hi Judy -  You are right.  It is not too difficult to roll out of bed in this setting.  I do love Sandpoint, Idaho!  Thanks for checking in!
