The Morning Breaks

With the sun going down so early this time of the year, I have started to plan my time at the temple around sunrise instead of sunset. It's fun to see the light coming from a different perspective.  These first two photos were taken one at the beginning of my time at the temple, and one right before I left.  I love both of them, but am so glad I drove around one more time to get the second shot with the sun higher in the sky.  It's interesting to me to see how even the nasty smog in the sky seems to dissipate as the sun rises.

Look at that beautiful stone surrounding the doorway!  I am so excited to see what the permanent doors look like!

The bricks seem to be all done for the stake center.  Looks like we are getting ready for a steeple.

There is something about seeing those giant stone slabs on a truck that just makes me happy.  It hasn't happened yet, but I'm sure it would be fun to see them traveling on the road to the temple.  I'm sure a few people have.

It just gets more and more beautiful each time I come.
