Thunderstorms

After some intense storms yesterday and lots of potentially wild weather, we were blessed with this sight last evening. It was such a bright rainbow.
This is a shot of the sky off to the west. The clouds were beginning to clear and the sun was trying to come out.

We had inches of rain. So many inches that I had water standing in my garden.

When a lot of rain falls in a short time, there is always a puddle on the neighbor's lawn. This puddle was so large that it was on our lawn as well. as a kid we would have gotten out bikes and ridden through all the puddles while the last of the raindrops fell on us.

As you can see, the rainbow was "full." So often when there's a rainbow in the sky, we see only the ends of it, but not last night. We were blessed to have safety throughout all the storms that came through our area.
