Sunrise

When was the last time the two of you caught a sunrise? We’re guessing probably not since your early dating days, if ever. It may be a cliché, but it’s always a romantic gesture (kinda like flowers). Check the time online at SunriseSunset.com and set your alarm. Then grab a blanket and a thermos of coffee, and enjoy the calmness of the morning hours together.
