Right now, though, I’m not interested in motives or forensic details. For the purposes of this piece, I’m not going to focus on his work in television, particularly the iconic sitcom All in the Family.

I was innocently finishing my email when I looked out the back window. The sunrise was in full glory! I almost ran back to the computer where my phone was sitting, ran back to the window, and starting clicking. We all know how fast sunrise lighting changes and I did not want to miss the glorious reds, yellows, oranges, and everything in between that was being displayed. I made it in time, took the phone pictures, and found myself back at the computer keyboard doing this blog to share the glorious sunrise. What could be better on a Sunday morning?
