...I woke-up early this morning...

...I was afraid that I wouldn't see the Moon today... I figured it to be too close to the sunrise for viewing this morning... And within a minute I was frantically pulling over and running up a hill trying to screw the camera onto the tripod! I knew I only had minutes before the sun would overtake this photo... I should be better prepared...
(note to self... wear tennis shoes and a jacket! Dress shoes don't get it for sprints on frosty uphill grassy slopes and a Polo shirt won't keep you warm at sunrise in March when you are running up said hill looking back over your shoulder to see if your truck is rolling away because you can't remember if you even shut it off much less pulled the emergency brakes!)
