Let love and kindness, joy and hope light the way this Christmas season, and stay true to what matters most on this Earth with the time we are given. 🙂





High view

The view from the hill, up out of the arroyo, was pretty grand. And the mountains aren’t a bad backdrop. 😉

Progression

I mean, wow, right? Does anyone doubt this latest proof of magic in Disappointment Valley (or on planet Earth?)? 🙂 That was absolutely as wide as my cell-phone camera could go; the rainbow was (seemed to be) right above me.

As usual, the rain forming the prism of the rainbows fell in the atmosphere, but not much actually made it to Earth.

And after sunset, this was the storm to the southeast. Only in a video clip was I able to catch the lightning bolts. Time between first and third photo: about an hour and 15 minutes. (And that rain didn’t make it to my location, either. I’m not greedy, but it’s still annoying to have rain *that close*! :))
