Rainbow at the house

Tonight we had to go out to a graduation party in Glastonbury, and drove through that nasty thunderstorm (the one that spawned the tornado warning for the Willimantic area).  We must have gone through close to the middle of it – wind, lightning, torrential rain and near golf ball sized hail.  Anyways, after the party we made our way home, and as the girls were getting ready for bed, we had a nice little surprise.

Jill yelled down from upstairs that there was a bright rainbow over the trees.  So I ran outside and grabbed my camera to get a few shots of the rainbows.

A nice ending to a stormy evening.

Thanks for looking!
