Autumn foliage in early morning light against cliff side rocks.

We recently leased a car.  A hybrid.  It's been two weeks.

With this new found access to car, and freedom and responsibility that come with it, our minds are expanding with new ideas of how we can spend our weekends.

Last night, we decided to drive ourselves to near by George Washington Bridge and Interstate Park with our cameras to meet the sunrise, and explore.  I wasn't 100% convinced that we would actually wake up, pretty up, and go out in time to see the sun rise, as part of me imagined scenarios where we would simply over sleep, or snooze the heck out of the alarm, succumbing to the trap of coziness and warmth under the blanket.  Needless to say, my husband enthusiastically forged the way to a special Sunday.
