The Scenic Route






My daily commute takes me on the iconic Alligator Alley and Snake Road.  Two perfectly named roads.  This time of year with the winter season creeping closer, the sun is dragging itself out of bed just like me.  Although it's now dark when I leave in the morning, the pay off is watching a spectacular sunrise as I drive to the reservation.  Without fail each morning brings with it a giant orange ball creeping up over the horizon, lighting the infinite sea of grass on fire.  The sky is full of rose and amber hues and snow white birds swoop down from the sky with the sun glimmering off the tips of their wings.
