it was another wildfire of a #sunrise today, the low clouds in the valley lit up as if they were over the mountains, so Wy’East himself was sending out the coals of a growing skyfire

I can see the makings of a sunrise on the weather apps, it’s hard to predict because sometimes the perfect conditions will turn into a low blanketing, blinding fog that obscured everything. I can’t make an announcement: “perfect sunrise tomorrow!” — inevitably it’ll be drizzle. But I saw it today, noted. *Perfect.*

And today paid off.
