What’s on the other side?

posted in Uncategorized |

Once again, we didn’t have much rain.  But we did have an awesome rainbow stretching across the sky as the dotter and I drove home.  If you look really closely at the picture, you’ll see the second rainbow above the first.

It’s not as spectacular as the one OmegaDad and I saw one day which was so vivid, so vibrant, that it was as if there were a fancy neon sign in the sky…that one had multiple people pulling off the highway to stop and take pictures, it was so amazing.

But this one was pretty bright, showed the entire arc, and had a flitting second arc that faded in and out of sight.

The dotter informed me that she knew a song about rainbows.  I was thinking of “Somewhere Over the Rainbow”, but then she started singing “The Rainbow Connection”.

I’ll take this lovely rainbow as a Sign.

OmegaDad and I spent an hour at the bank, signing things and having them notarized.  OmegaDad had taken guppies off to the aquarium store, and apparently our wildly mutated guppies wowed the employees there.  They asked him if he was a breeder…hah.  Many of the guppies were purchased in a futile attempt to feed them to some turtles.

Tomorrow the packers arrive.  We’re trying to get last-minute stuff sorted out.  I’ll try to update tomorrow night!

    Beautiful picture! I have only seen real rainbows a couple of times but both times they seemed like a sign to me. Wishing you all the best with all your last minute details. I am so amazed how quickly you have pulled this off when it took me a full year to get my parents’ house ready. You guys are really something!

    Beautiful shot! The Bee just learned the sign for rainbow this week, and she is obsessed with it.

    Good luck with packing!!!
