Good Way To Start The Week

I received 1.5 inches (~ 3.8 cm) of rain today from those fierce storms that blew through the Midwest yesterday. That takes care of the mild drought we have been in since June.
As I was doing some work on the computer after dinner tonight, I noticed the room had a very warm glow and when I looked out and saw the light rain again I ran to the east side of the house and sure enough there was a rainbow. It's been a really long time since I last saw one and then I realized I needed to get my camera and capture a shot of it. I ran through the house like a crazy woman and stood outside to get this shot. Not the greatest shot nor the strongest rainbow but I did capture it. Hopefully I'll have a great week now :-)

It's always good to see a rainbow, Patti, cos it means there's sunshine over your shoulder.

A very nice shot of the subtle rainbow colors. Nice to have some summer rain. V

I think it's a lovely capture and definitely augurs well for the rest of the week! Glad to hear you had some rain as well.

A true Pbaser ... running around to find the camera for that quick shot. Hilarious!
Pleased to learn you at least some rain at last.
Hope the rainbow does forecast a great week ahead for you. Well done, Patti.

Well worth the run. Glad you got rain. I think we've had 10 inches in the past two weeks.

Rain from the clouds a couple of days ago and now a beautiful rainbow!!! I'd love to see some more rain here.
