Later I walked near our home’s front windows at the perfect time to see a snippet of rainbow. It was the widest band of colors I’d ever seen. Unfortunately, the glimpse passed before I could grab a camera. Ah, well. I’m sure rainstorms this summer will provide many such beautiful sights. And I’m thankful for spotting it.
Do rainbows appear often, or at all, where you live? Have you ever seen the American film “Gone With the Wind”?

Dearest Darla,
ReplyDeleteWould have loved seeing you with that fedora—love hats like that or the Spanish Cordobes hats in black of course.
I do prefer hats with a cord for fastening under my chin!
Oh yes, rainbows are often visible and even inside our bathroom at certain times—they're magical to me.
Gone With the Wind is a movie we both LOVE as well as the book. It also is magical, especially for southerners.
Big hugs,
Mariette + Kitties
PS My rescue adventure for kitty Spicy from Acapulco got posted last night...
:D
ReplyDeleteWell, Darla, dad, having just returned from babysitting those pesky mutts, says he's never been a hat wearer with the exception of hoods when it's rainy/snowy, and he's ashamed to admit he's never seen Gone With the Wind. And today's stupid dad thought is that for whatever head-shaking reason this reminded him of Spinal Tap's "Break Like the Wind". Sometimes we wonder about his thought process...
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen the film, either. lol It's not a period in time I care to see on screen. And your dad's not stupid; he's an amusing kindred soul. Heh...
DeleteLooks like a huge line of storms is all along that part of the country. Hope you make it through okay!
ReplyDeleteThank you; so far, so good.
DeleteWe see a rainbow now and then, but not very often. I've seen the movie. A wonderful movie.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day and rest of the week, Darla. Hugs. ♥
~hugs~
DeleteGlad you didn't lose your hat. My mom uses plastic bags from Walmart and other stores to cover her heard when it rains. She gets a lot of comments from people. :) I have not seen that movie, but I do see rainbows once in a while. I am not outside often. My husband usually drags me out to look. :) XO
ReplyDeleteYou are so like my husband. lol I can't even drag him out, however, though the eclipse will likely be different. Hugs, my dear.
DeleteDid you get any of the weather from the storm system yesterday, that spewed out so many tornados?
ReplyDeleteFortunately, we haven't needed to hide in the basement for years. Tornadoes are scary; I've dreamed of them on occasion. Be well, my dear.
DeleteRainstorms in summer? This does not compute.
ReplyDeletelol
DeleteWe don't see rainbows here very often. It has been mighty windy here too. The bad storms went south of us so we were lucky.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you and yours are safe.
DeleteYes, we have our share but usually I am in the house and miss them. I always see them posted on FB! lol....Yep, been windy here, rain and storms Tue. afternoon.
ReplyDeleteI have the luck of looking out our windows at the right time. :) Stay safe, my dear.
DeleteWe might see half a dozen rainbows a year. I saw Gone with the Wind many years ago and I can't really remember it now.
ReplyDelete:D
DeleteHi Darla. Visiting your blog for the first time and the rainbow caught me. Lovely post, so full of gratitude. I once saw a double rainbow. It was double the delight :)
ReplyDeleteBest,
