A Late Summer Sunrise and Morning
An intense, late summer sunrise greeted me at 6:40 AM. By 9:00 AM the breakfast portico was flooded by the most gorgeous sunlight and warmth imaginable!
How to resist lingering over breakfast on the sun-drenched portico?
The valley mist dissipated as a light morning dew lingered on the lawn and flowers.
The rarefied, dream-like light and a caress of a breeze danced blissfully in the fields of vineyards.

Oh, those blissful mornings on the portico..I miss them. Longing to return already. 🙁
How we miss you! The portico seems forlorn without you. I also dream of another time to share Genius Loci and more of Umbria with you and Dan.
Oh, so beautiful!
Thanks, Sandra. What a beautiful Indian summer morning it was!
