Spectacular sunrise

Published August 2, 2011 / by Steve Berentson

I was rewarded this morning for being up at 5:30. I got to the kitchen window and my eye was immediately drawn to the sky. I grabbed my camera and headed for the front porch, where I shot a series of images of Mt. Baker and a skyline painted by the rising summer sun. As Bob Hyde would say, “It’s another beautiful day in Anacortes!”

About Steve Berentson
A fourth generation Skagit County native who was moved kicking and screaming from this island community in 1960. I finally reclaimed an Anacortes address in 1980, and I have been in constant celebration of my return since that time. Many of us who call Anacortes home love Fidalgo Island for its natural assets: among them are rugged beaches, pristine lakes, thousands of acres of forestland and some awesome views of the Skagit Valley and surrounding islands. Another element of my love affair with this community is its people, both natives and immigrants. They will “star” in many of my journal entries.
