Beauty in the Rain



Admittedly, we have felt a lot of rain and wind since we arrived in England.  Yes, you are probably saying to yourself, "What else would they expect?"  But, actually, there usually is a very nice summertime in Britain.  Although, this year is an exception.  (And the Brits have been apologizing for the dreary weather since the day we arrived. :-))

We had one completely sunny, blue sky, and very warm day last weekend, and needless to say we spent all day outside.   Besides that there has really just been early autumn.  I don't really mind the cool because we left the way too hot summer in NC, but there are times when a little more sunshine would be nice.

With that said, we enjoyed a beautiful benefit of the rain one evening last week.  As you can see, we viewed the most vivid rainbow that we have ever seen.  It stretched completely across the sky and showed a glimmer of light in the midst of rain, rain, and more rain.  We will take what we can get along the way and will be grateful!!!
