Where I live in California, a rainbow is a rare occurrence in my daily life.  We just don’t get enough rain.

In Oregon, rainbows are a dime a dozen, appearing out of nowhere as the weather changes instantaneously from thunder showers to sunny skies.

Yesterday, in Oregon, this rainbow appeared almost right above me, both ends touching down on our developing property.  It was amazingly beautiful.

I couldn’t help thinking this must be a sign of good luck somewhere.

Of course the hooligans immediately went searching for a pot of gold. 

Little do they know, I’ve already found it and they were standing on it.

  1. Cathy, Cathy!!! Did you notice it is a double rainbow! That’s not a trick of your camera, we get double rainbows often. Look above the brightly colored rainbow, and you’ll see the faint colors of a second one! Ah, they always make me smile, especially these ones that show all the colors! Welcome home to Oregon, Cathy! It’s good to have you here!

  5. Yes! You are living on and building your dreams on your pot of gold !Your new winery and home are in the only other place I would desire to live other than here in WA.Fortunately, you’re close enough that when you open for business and tours we can drive on down and rejoice in your good fortune ! ( and ours too !)

  8. Great photo! I just love a double rainbow. When we were searching for a place to live here in PA, we were always coming across double rainbows. I forgot that you all are still in the midst of fall colors back home.

  12. Gorgeous! I could sit with my chin in my hand and a dreamy smile on my face all day long, staring at that lovely sight. You are indeed standing on your pot of gold, Cathy, congrats!

  22. How beautiful! You know…you should have that made into a print and frame it then hang it up in your home when this is all said and done. I think that would be a very cool way to remember the journey that lead you there.

  39. Wow! That is one of the most gorgeous rainbow shots I’ve seen! You even got a double rainbow. All the fall foliage and the blue, blue sky–it’s stunning. It’s like the whole earth and sky are rejoicing and letting it show by breaking out in such vivid color. Thank you for sharing it.

  40. You got a double rainbow! Double blessings.
    Isn’t miraculous when you see it touch the ground? That has only happened to me once in New Mexico. It was very vivid and very close and I got teary eyed.
    The colors of the grasses and bushes are beautiful in your photo.

  52. This is lovely. Double Rainbow is that name of an ice cream place in The City. Don’t know if it’s still there, but it was in The Castro. I used to eat there all the time.
    Sorry, tangent-ing (made that word up). Just a beautiful photo.

  61. What a pot of gold you have there, just beautiful. I think you know my SIL. Mrs. Freeby as known by the kids. She called the other day to tell me about your site. I told her I was already a regular reader. We descussed your pumpkin cake with cider glaze. I still want that glaze. I’d gargle with that glaze. LOL Anyway, I have fun hearing about the property. Hope you all have a happy Thanksgiving. 🙂

  63. A very good sign! I’ll never forget the time I saw a completely circular rainbow. I was flying from San Francisco to London, and I looked out the window, and I saw this circular rainbow below, with the shadow of the airplane I was flying in in the very center! I took it as a very good omen. Years later I read somewhere that that is the only circumstances in which you’ll ever see a rainbow in a full circle. Freaky!

  69. My goodness – that picture doesn’t even look real!!

    Since moving from New York, I haven’t seen a rainbow at all. Thanks for the pic, it was a great memory.

    My husband is originally from Oregon and we are planning on moving there by the New Year. Your picture makes me so excited to start the next chapter of my life in such a beautiful place.

  70. What camera are you using?

    You even caught the faint second bow above the main one.

    I would agree they are standing on the pot of gold.

    My Thanksgiving menu is up, with wine choices. Only Thanksgiving it self calls for a white and I went with a Chardonay because of the already purchased and planned Chardonay from Montecello.

    The lamb is served with the wind it is cooked in. I chose mostly Austrailian because California wines in that price range may give me splitting headaches the next morning.

  77. I’m always so thrilled to see a rainbow while everyone else is saying “Uh-huh. Yeah. Great.”

    I think you’re right though. You’ve already found the pot of gold. Still, it’s good to have something to entertain the hoolligans.

    😉
