Sunrise feels a little sweeter when you know you’re running out of them in a certain place 🌅

One of our last mornings here, and Maine showed off. The sky turned to molten gold, the water stilled, and a flock of ducks drifted across the horizon - the kind of quiet, fleeting moment that makes you stop and breathe it all in.

There’s something special about catching a sunrise near the end of a season. It’s a reminder to slow down, to savor every last light-soaked minute before it’s time to pack up and move on.

👉 Save this for your someday- Maine trip - because, I promise, mornings like this are worth waking up early for!
