 We recently had the most stunning rainbow.  It was actually a double rainbow, but I didn't get a picture of that.

I took a video of it!

But then my neighbor and I sat and talked about poop so I figured I better not share that.

Its so hard to see, but under the purple (indigo?) layer are two more purple rays… I tried to boost the colors and show you, but they are so naturally intense and bright they almost disappear in editing.  

You can almost distinguish how brilliant the sunlight is on the green trees against the dark stormy sky.

Rainbows never cease to amaze me.  I love the meaning behind them, love the vivid beauty of the colors, love the fact that it is the calm after the storm.

Did you know there are 89,100,000 google results for "i love rainbows"?

Guess I am not alone. 😉

  1. I love rainbows, too. But double rainbows? Are simply uh-mazing! :o)
    I remember when I was a little girl and saw a rainbow. Wanted to go search for the pot of gold at the end of it, but it was time for dinner. My mom said I could go after dinner…Then she probably went around the corner and laughed. *wink*

  2. Hi! I’m not sure how I stumbled on your page but it has been such a blessing! I am a born again Christian who was raised in FL. After meeting my wonderful husband in Bible School, we got married and moved to North Dakota so he could take a position as youth pastor/song leader at a church. It was so neat to see the things we have in common! I will definitely be checking your page…your recipes look amazing! Thank you!

  3. What a small world!  My family is from Fargo… I still get up there once every couple months. 🙂 
     
    It was nice to "meet" you Ashley!
