Early bird of Vermont gets me via interweb.

I've mentioned how the Summer sun rises earlier in Vermont, than in Texas. I'm the sort of person that wakes up with the sun. It can be a problem.

Note that on the same day, the sunrise In Hardwick Vermont is more than an hour earlier than Austin Texas (below).

Our home in Vermont has a variety of tech that enables us to monitor it while we're away. I get the occasional notification when the neighbors walk by (there's only one other home on our street) or when the wind makes the trees sway. I often find myself mesmerized looking at the view of there, from here. The green trees at my front door from two thousand miles away, accessed on my iPhone at any time. Often notifying me to look.

But I also get notifications when the sun is shining right at the front door... EARLY in the morning.

Imagine the scene, I'm asleep in my bed in Austin Texas. I get an alert from my phone indicating "there is motion at your front door". I stumble out of bed, get my phone to see THIS! It's that early rising sun from Vermont, waking me up early in Texas. The sun and technology have conspired to get me up early.
