After a full day rain, the sky began to clear just as the sun was setting. After the rainbows... we had beauty.

Isn't it nice to see rain instead of snow now! It's going to rain all day but that's ok because it's not snow.

Rainbow's on the Mississippi River.. Much to my dismay, I saw the end of the rainbows and there was no pot of gold! It went from one river bank to the other and it was there for well over an hour.

Yes Maine, definately better than snow! I took the picture while I was at work, and for the rest of the day everyone I talked to had something to say about "the rainbow"



Great pictures Laura, I've never found my pot of gold either (lol) but I'll keep hoping that one day...... Thanks for bringing the mighty Mississippi River to me.

I have seen several of these halos. I used to think they were called sundogs, until I did a search...Sundogs are much more spectacular, but I've never seen one...Try googling sundog, then images.

Rainbow from last spring.
