Sunrise over the Lake one week ago today.  It was the sun giving us it's last blaze of glory before it went away for the Winter.  That afternoon, it started to rain and our morning view since then has been gray (fog or rain). 

Today, the rain is a reminder of why we started traveling during the Oregon winters. 

But when we look at this picture, we remember why we love it here. (But also why we need to visit earlier in the Fall!)

We appreciate all visitors and commenters! Thank you.

    I very much want to visit Oregon, Sallie, and this is the reason! Stunning!

    Those really are amazing colors; what a contrast to the soft pink skies above!

    Wonderful sunrise, Sallie. I keep telling myself I’m going to get up to see a sunrise, but then I roll over and go back to sleep. Not a morning person, but it looks like you are — and a morning photographer, too. Beautiful picture.

    The patterns of the sky with all the golden light looks surreal…

    Where you live is a very pretty state. I visited there a couple of times, but it rained too much for me. It is all in what you get used to.

    Beautiful shot. I like the rain but not day in and day out. I have my fingers crossed for nice weather this weekend in San Diego.

    That is indeed a spectacular sky. When I think about all the rain in Oregon I think about the magic that is photography. So glad you have this photo to remind you of the non-rainy days.
