So God said to Noah,
"This is the sign of the
promise
I am making to all life on earth."
HALLELUJAH!!!
[I took this photo when taken to Oxford by my UK/Uganda friend/sister, Jill. We had spent stressful time together in the Soroti, Uganda, situation, having met just days before we went to Soroti. She worked at New Hope Uganda orphanage and I was visiting. After returning to my home in February, '04, she returned to hers in Worcester, UK, in October for a vacation break. I hopped on a plane ASAP to be with her in England, and we had a very special time together. One day, we took a train to Oxford and spent the day "touristing". Of all the many photos I took and historical bits and pieces of that day that were buried in me, this is the highest of all. The day was a mix of light showers, heavy rain, very cloudy, and, sometimes in the midst, a bit sunny. Very weather-active day. To walk across this University campus, glance up, and see the rainbows ... my heart was exploding with joy instantly. So pleased I actually could grab my camera quickly enough and take this. And it was right in time, because rain was pouring again not long after.]

I love it! We had our little rainbow today. My grandson baby Jaxon (pop over to the blog and you can see a photo of him!) got the all clear on not having to have a helmet for his head that was kind of misshapen from his birth. We are so happy and relieved!
I'm sorry I missed your call, I would have loved to talk with you. Perhaps on Saturday we can chat as I work tomorrow. I went out and watched the other children while my daughter took the baby to the specialist.
This is one of my favorite photos of yours.
Love it that you were able to capture the moment! Sweet! :)

Awesome picture! I love architecture, but when it's crowned with a rainbow from God it looks the best!
oh how you needed that rainbow-gift, CaryJo ... thanks for sharing it with us!

Such a wonderful moment to capture as a reminder for that time!
The double rainbows remind me of the verse from Rock of Ages: Be of sin the double cure-save from wrath and make me pure. A precious reminder!
Very beautiful.
I'm so glad that our God keeps HIS promises. Nice pic!
