Sunrise at Fort Frederick SP near the C&O Canal Towpath. We had the whole place to ourselves for the first night but were invaded by a second vehicle the second night.

A cliffside campsite overlooking Meat Cove, the northernmost road on Cape Breton Island, is the perfect place to view one of the first sunrises on North America each day.

We really like sunsets.

This is one of the last pictures I took of my old Syncro

The same day & place, but looking east towards a supercell 50 miles away.

Then a couple sunsets with the replacement 2WD clone.
The 2WD is sporting the old syncro's wheels, lights, top, bumpers, interior and many other bits, so they look very similar

Up on the same hilltop as above, but in June rather than Sep, so the grass is green and the sunset is much further north.

Then one from the park just above our house where we walk Tunes every evening.

Jalama beach - with smoke from the Thomas fire making everything red. The Sun appeared a deep red, which the phone camera can't show.

Only if you catch the super blue moon in eclipse later this month.

Very inspiring thread. New Year's resolution to get out there and witness more awesome sunsets this year. (Sunrises? - meh)
