An early start - before sunrise I pull off to see if the Prison Fire is still burning - a few faint lonely glowing dots on the hillside.

I am breathing hard as I hike quickly up Lizard Rock - just in time for the sunrise -

and with time linger a bit longer -

but not too long - back to Tucson - it feels like I stole this time from the day before anyone except Alison and the birds knew that I was gone...
