Sunrise and Sunset all in one day

It’s not too often you can wake up in the morning and walk or ride your bike down the road to the beach and watch the sunrise. My wife Monika had been bugging me for a couple of weeks to head to the beach bright and early and take pictures of the sunrise. We had been camping at Salisbury State Beach Reservation campground for a couple of weeks while we headed back and forth to work.

You really didn’t think Monika was going to get up and really head down there at 5:45 AM did ya? Well I did make it down to the beach that day and it was a pretty sunrise as it had been the last few days. This was September 6th, 2007.

I was then joined by a few people trying to take pictures just like me. Trying to get that picture perfect postcard shot.When I made it back to the motor home guess who was still sleeping? Yup, snoring up a storm.Well, we had a great day and as we all know, days turn into night, but, not until you get to see the sunset. Of course Monika was awake by now and we had dinner then I headed over to the boat ramp and the beach on the western side of the campground to watch the sunset. I ended up taking my bike and I took a picture of a couple who were watching the sunset and taking their own pictures. It was funny, the wife kept telling the husband to climb on an old pier and I thought he was going to fall into the water. Cracked me up. I ended up heading back to our campsite and we had a great dinner. I also snuck out on the 4th of September and took a couple of nice sunrise shots then too.
