Never did I ever think I would find something so beautiful at Walmart! But that's just what happened last week as I was walking thru the parking lot. Think only once in my life have I ever seen such a huge rainbow. It began behind Walmart and stretched across the parking lot. . .
and over the fast food places and across the street called Mill Plain.
I wanted to take a photo of the whole thing but figured maybe I would take the two photos above first and then run over to Mill Plain and dodge cars to get across the busy street and take one from the sidewalk over there but those dark storm clouds moving in on it completely engulfed it before I could so I am glad I got the two shots of half a rainbow each direction. If you enlarge it, you will also see that spring is in full bloom here with the gorgeous colors of the trees that line that area.
Enjoy!

Great things can and do happen at Wal-Mart, eh Paulie?!
Very beautiful especially when enlarged. Hope you found the pot of gold!
Cool shot with the rainbow and those dark clouds behind. I have tried to get rainbows before - they always disappear to fast.
Good capture

Paulie: What is almost as beautiful are all the trees you captured in full bloom. Great photo for SWF.
It give us a kind of satisfaction to take great shots like these.

The whitish blossoms, the rainbow, the somber sky combine to make a gorgeous photo. And to think it all happened at Wal-Mart! ;-)
A double rainbow, what a great catch.
Great shots!
Very beautiful against the dark sky.

Lucky You, Paulie! Those are great photos!
Terrific photo op and a job well done. This is my first SWF and my second day of trying to visit all of the sites. Whew! Great Rainbow
I like your site a lot. My Dad was an Elementary Principal and my wife, Martha, is retired from public schools. She now teaches at Sylvan Learning Centers. Education Rocks.
What GORGEOUS shots of the rainbow paulie!! I normally detest WalMart, but when it gives you an opportunity like that, it's great!
I absolutely love the colors in the sky...they make the rainbow colors stand out beautifully!
I love rainbows. Perfect shots!
Incredible rainbow pictures - they are so transient. You really made such a great effort to take the second picture too!
