Waking up at Hilton Head
May 15, 2018 07:09:07 #
Rained most of last night and thunderstorms are predicted for the afternoon. As a respite, we got a nice sunrise over the beach.

I live on Hilton Head. I just returned from a three week trip in the American southwest. That is my original home. While I am not in any way being critical of these to Sunrise Photos, I will tell you that both sun rises and sets in the eastern United States are inferior to what one witnesses in the Southwest. The cooler and drier air coupled with the higher elevation in that area produces the most spectacular sunsets and rises that I have ever seen. Although I awaken every day before sunrise, I will not even bother to go observe the local phenomena.

If you look at my tag line, I live in Utah. My purpose here is not to exalt, but to record.

I sincerely meant you no disparagement, Mike. I am a graduate of the U of Utah, and my real home is just outside Big Bend Nat. Park. I am only on Hilton Head for a job and cannot wait to go home. This is a wonderful place if you like tourist traps, haze, heat and humidity. Not to mention mosquitoes, ticks, gnats and such an abundance of vegetation and trees that one cannot see very much (except at the beach which is a human ant hill). Enjoy your stay. Be sure, if you like birds, to visit Pinckney Island which is just across the main bridge on your right side.

The Pinckney posts will probably come later this week after editing. As a native Texan and Utah resident, I understand your points, but HHI has its good points (especially if you do not have to live here during the summer).

Thanks for looking Angela. It was rough later this morning and we are expecting more tomorrow. I am afraid that you are next.
