Was out fishing yesterday when a quick moving thunderstorm rolled in.
It was cool, we were down at the other end of the lake, lightning bolts
flying all around us. The crash of the thunder made it impossible to
talk to each other, even tho we were only separated by 8 feet. It is
times like these, when death is close by, that you most truly feel
alive! Then, it was blazing sun on one side...Enough so I was wearing
my Maui Jim sunglasses, while an absolute DELUGE dumped on our heads.
Suddenly, the brightest and most perfect rainbow I have ever seen
appeared over the lake. You could see both ends rising from the water
in what was a picture book rainbow. A short time later, another rainbow
appeared on top of the first. This went on for at least 45 minutes.
Quickly, we drove to the part of the lake where the rainbow started,
jumped over the side and into the water. We dove down about 15 feet
when we scraped away some of the sand and there it was...The crock of
gold. We brought it back to the boat, divvied it up and went home.
Another great day of fishing!

always pick the wrong end and all I ever 'find' are irate farmers telling

I lived in Dublin for over 6 years. Does that qualify me as an 'Irisher'
