There is nothing (to me) more lovely, than the heady, fragrance of Lilacs. They won’t last long, but as long as they do I am giving thanks for the joy they bring.
And guess what?!?!? I saw a rainbow….very faint! BUT still a rainbow.
FIRST of the Season!!
Time…it marches on always. Giving us fleeting gifts of such happiness;
the expanse of sky, our land, and the beautiful spirits of all!

I was busy just doing my thing—
When Mom Yelled—-
Come with me, Boo Berry—
Come on!!
Hurry! Hurry! We have a RAINBOW!!
The very first of the season!
Okay!
That is a good thing?
Yes! It is, Mom said. Bending down to pet me. Yes, it is!
I think anything that gets Mom petting me is a good thing. 🙂

It was put up on a public website, so I don’t see it as a problem if you share it. It is one of the best rainbow photos I have seen. I just had to send it to you.
WOW! Thank you so much! It is an amazing! AMAZING! Rainbow!
From the world to your heart,

We all went for a walk, Mom, Boo, and me—-TLC
And we saw a RAINBOW!!!
Mom was thrilled,
Boo and I didn’t really care, but it made Mom happy so we were happy!

We were loading out a load of hay when I happened to look at the sky
A quick little rain shower brought with it a prism of light
All around us, the earth smelled of heat, dirt, alfalfa, and the fresh scent of rain in the air.
What a lovely gift at the end of the day!

The trouble with Rainbows is they never last!
The gift of a rainbow is the fact they never last!
A beautiful rainbow right here —with rain coming down on the plateau and putting out the fires!!
YAY!
RAINBOWS are just the best!

I always think of God’s promise and you when I see a rainbow! Have a good day. A bit cooler here today. Vadarae
Oh! Thank you so very, very much!
Linda
We GOT rain! Thankfully the hay is all in and stacked.
RAIN! Beautiful wonderful Rain!
And we got a smidge of something—rainbow, sundog, something. I’ll take a sundog–it means a cool down.
The full moon through the rain clouds was Stunningly beautiful!

Have you noticed (wherever you live) there is no absolute silence anymore?
Even the most remote spots have the presence of a roar in jets or distant traffic
(see the bunny?)
Welcome sounds of liquid bird songs—-always welcome
And the dappled shadows of gently rustling leaves in the breeze
A soothing delight.
The sounds of silence eddying gently
Bringing with it a tiny rainbow—a source of huge delight.
From my heart to your world,
Linda
I got an instant message from Randy—“We had a downpour this evening and then a rainbow! The vegetable & flower gardens are enjoying the rains we are having”
Thank you for sharing your beautiful yard and that wonderful rainbow, Randy!
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you,
