CHURCH BELLS and SUNRISE

I'm waiting for sunrise.  The church bells rang six times...eleven minutes ago.  They always sound so very lovely.  They ring first at six a.m. and they ring for the last time at nine p.m.  It's good they do not ring during the night, that is very considerate.  This morning sunrise is at 7:14 a.m. and sunset will be at 6:30 p.m. as the days are getting shorter.  It's just a teeny-tiny bit shorter each day, you hardly notice it.  My window faces East, and the harbor is close, with the bay just beyond.  So if I sit here early morning I often will see very pretty sunrises.  It is a good way to start ones day, with a beautiful sunrise and church bells chiming.  For this I am thankful.

  3. What a perfect place to spend your early mornings. We know a lot of humans don't like the shorter days, but we all love it at our house as it means humans slow down, stay home more, and we have more cuddle time.

  7. You have the perfect perch to watch the sunrise, June. We've noticed the days getting shorter, too, and wish they could stay longer so we could get more play time outside.

  8. The sunrise gets later and later, June.
    Wish it was still summertime.

  10. We love sunrises, too. And the sunset is a peaceful way to end one's day. We don't much care for the shortening daylight...less time to see barkable things outside, LOL!

  11. It sounds plovely. And it must be comforting to have something so constant in your life. June seems thankful for her big window on the world and her ever-growing collection of springs.

  12. We don't get much of church bells here, except on Sunday. In summer, though, one of the churches has a Macedonain festival, and we can hear all their great music all over the neighborhood.

  17. I grew up hearing a church bell chime out each hour (24/7), so I know how wonderful it can be. You're very fortunate. And to be near a harbor, too! It sounds wonderful.

  19. That is a beautiful way to start your day. We can't see the sunrise because of the trees, and the church nearest is too far to hear the bells over the traffic noise. We do get some spectacular sunsets, though.
