The heavens opened up and it poured. The sun came out again and there was not one, by two rainbows. Beautiful.

This was my sky just a few moments ago
That is quite a beautiful sight. We had rain above and below us but none directly over us. The sky stayed it's Carolina Blue until the sun started to set.

I love it when I see a rainbow and a double rainbow is twice as nice.

Beautiful. I haven't saw one this year but last year my daughter and I saw double rainbows two or three times after the rain. They are so beautiful.

@ElusiveButterfly That's how my daughter is. After the rain if the sun comes out she goes out on the deck and looks all around to see if she can spot a rainbow.

I think rainbows are very pretty. That is even better when you have two.

There was a double rainbow the day my son got married in Ireland - supposed to be very good luck.
