End of the Rainbow

Early this evening, I got a call from Google Earth Evangelist, who said that there was a rainbow outside. She did warn me that it was raining some, but I immediately rushed out and there it was. My photos, as usual, don't do it justice, since it wasn't food, and I suspect it had faded some since she called me. It was still cool, though. I found it amusing that it looked as if at end of the rainbow there was not a pot of gold, but Duke's coal pile.

In fact, the rainbow was huge. It was particularly nifty looking at all this, because the chapel carillon was playing and it was extremely windy.

Meanwhile, the sky was pretty spectacular behind me, too.

Around this time, or perhaps shortly before, a whole bunch of people saw this rainbow or other rainbows and they tweeted about it. John Rees collected all the tweets that linked to a bunch of amazing rainbow photos so you can see them, too.
