Of Rain and Rainbows

My hus­band and I were going to whine about the wind and rain that marred the last week­end of our vaca­tion, but then a sun shower arrived late Sun­day after­noon.

The sun shower blos­somed into a dou­ble rain­bow that lasted over an hour, fol­lowed by a glo­ri­ous sun­set — the best sun­set of our stay. After that, how could we com­plain? We had hoped to kayak or sail, but the weather had other plans in store for us…

Even the rain on the tidal ponds was beau­ti­ful in its own right. Golden light with rain­drops, fol­lowed by the reflec­tion of sun­set clouds a half hour later. A gor­geous evening.

We count our bless­ings.
