Thankfully I was with someone, so i knew i wasnt dreaming.What a sight to behold. It touched down on the earth right in front of me. 26taurus 26taurusDeep unspeakable suffering may well be called a baptism, a regeneration, the initiation into a new state.George ElliotYou're searching, Joe, for things that don't exist; I mean beginnings.

Even if they wake me up, I still smile... How many double rainbows did you see down in FL, T? I saw them all the time! The atmosphere was so crazy what with thunderstorms/sun every few minutes, so no big surprise!katatonic26t, thank you for sharing bout the rainbow! i always thought it was impossible, that the ends always recede as you approach them...i would love to know what it feels like to stand at one end...are you irish??26taurusYes, it's nice to be able to open up the windows and hear the bird songs again.Like you, I saw a TON of rainbows in FL. The skyscapes in general were really phenomenal. Don't you miss the little geckos running around everywhere? Yes, that's another part I'll miss; the daily thunderstorms. They'd come rolling through and quickly pass and it was as if nothing happened - sun beaming bright & paradise again! Well, in certain areas. One of the best things about living down there: being able to wear sandals everyday. And not needing to drive far to get to the coast where you could catch a gorgeous sunset just about every evening. Kat, it was pretty amazing! I was wide-eyed, mouth agape as was the person with me, saying 'omg, look!'. It was a shimmery mirage-like spectacle..."there", but not. Moving and alive. The raindrops coming down looked like diamonds as they caught the sunlight and danced through the transparent colors. The picture above gives you an idea. I'll never forget it! And yeah, I am part Irish!
