Ok. I've officially had it with winter. Next season please. You know you've had enough snow when the kids at school complain about snow in the forecast (knowing that if it snows enough, they get a day out of school). Of course by now, they've figured out you have to make those days up. Anyways, I think I am more ready for spring this year than any in the past.

A few from over Christmas break. Both from Virginia Beach, Virginia.

A few from the beach yesterday. I didn't get any close up shots of the birds (that I liked), but did get some from a distance. The first three are at the fishing pier and the fourth is from the residential section of the beach.

Down at the beach by 6:15 this morning to take pictures of the sunrise. It was slightly cold. I think it may have been 30 degrees. After about 30 minutes I could not feel my hands anymore. The sun came up about 7:15, and then it was not too bad. At least the wind wasn't blowing there.

I've never taken any of the sunrise before; mostly because I'm never up that early. I don't know why I decided to wake up at 5:15 on my Christmas break.

I managed to get several shots that I like. I will post a few today and more over the next few days hopefully. Enjoy.
