Sunrise and Sunset
on Mt. Garfield
Bob Jensen at
Trinity University
On May 14,
2006 I retired from
Trinity University after a long and
wonderful career as an accounting professor in four universities. I was
generously granted "Emeritus" status by the Trustees of Trinity University. My
wife and I now live in a cottage in the White Mountains of New Hampshire ---

Our
address is 190 Sunset Hill Road, Sugar Hill, New Hampshire
Our cottage was known as the Brayton Cottage in the early 1900s
Sunset Hill is a ridge overlooking with
New Hampshire's White Mountains to the East
and Vermont's
Green Mountains to the West
Sunrise, sunset ,
Swiftly fly the years,
One season following another,
Laden with happiness,
And tears

This week I will feature Set 4 of my favorite
sunrise and sunset pictures mostly taken from inside our cottage.
Featured is Mt. Garfield at sunrise and sunset
Mt. Garfield in the White Mountains of New Hampshire --- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Garfield_(New_Hampshire)
Mount Garfield is a mountain located in Grafton County, New Hampshire. The mountain is part of the White Mountains. Mt. Garfield is flanked to the east by South Twin Mountain, and to the southwest along Garfield Ridge by Mount Lafayette. The south faces of Garfield drain into the Franconia Branch of the East Branch of the Pemigewasset River, through the Pemigewasset Wilderness, thence into the Pemigewasset and Merrimack rivers, and into the Gulf of Maine at Newburyport, Massachusetts. The north faces of Garfield drain into the north and south branches of the Gale River, thence into the Ammonoosuc and Connecticut rivers, and into Long Island Sound at Old Saybrook, Connecticut.
The Appalachian Trail, a 2,170-mile (3,500-km) National Scenic Trail from Georgia to Maine, runs along the ridge, across the summit of Garfield.
Unlike nearby Mt. Washington and Mt. Lafayette along the AppalachianTrail, Mt. Garfield is not above timberline

Can you make out what is called the Baby's
