Snow Rainbow

Snow Rainbow at 7:15 in the morning

For the first time in my life, this morning I saw a snow rainbow.  We often have times when it snows in the mountains and the sky is clear over the plains.  With the sun rising in the clear, eastern sky, the light shines on the falling snow in the mountains.  The result is a rainbow created by the light reflecting on the ice crystals in the snow.  I just had to share. 

The holidays were very enjoyable.  Janice had the week off.  While I was working on Saturday, she drug out the indoor Christmas decorations and dressed the house in holiday fair.  We had Thanksgiving dinner at Janice's cousin's house.  This is an annual event that has been going on for many, many years.  Her cousin, Richard, is a Mason.  He serves as a speaker at funerals when a fellow Mason passes on.  He is asked to represent that organization several times a week.  Richard told us that he is notified of the funerals by the secretary and very seldom hears from the head of the group.  Last week the secretary was out of town and the head of the local organization had to call and notify him of a funeral.  Richard was not available to take the call, which required him to place a return call.  When he called, a very surprised woman answered the phone.  She said her husband's caller ID did not say "Richard"....it said "Someone died".  They had a good chuckle over that one.

Sunday morning we took a walk.  We met up with some of the neighborhood girls.

Have a good week.

God bless you all.
