shout out to the creator

pouring down rain...mindlessly food shopping...breaking sunshine....rain stopped....turning left....and THERE IT WAS! i've never seen it before in my whole. entire. life! the BI of ROYGBIV in a spectacular ever-reaching bow to the sky. all i could do was say "oh my god", roll down my window and shout "thank you!"....then a horn behind me sounded and i had to move on. thinking on the short trek home...this means something....this has got to mean something!
how wonderful. i have the same sort of feeling that i get when i see the full moon.

gina- send me that digital camera asap.....puhleeeeeease!
