4 # Daybreak 3 No. West Beach Sunrise It is a pleasure to watch as the sun suddenly pops over the horizon, revealing a variety of subtle colors and textures. - David Ladner The blue sky and shimmering water meet at the far, distant horizon. The rising sun glistens off the gently rolling surf where the dolphins are playfully going through their morning paces and the pelicans are skillfully diving for fish. From over the sand dune comes a solo deer that meanders to the water’s edge. Footprints cover the sand, from colossal human prints to the most miniscule forms of shore life. Yet for as far as I can see in both directions, I’m sure I am the only person on the face of the earth! Welcome to daybreak on Kiawah. - Marilyn Olson
