Look! Look! Look To The...

Okay. Some of you probably started humming along as you read the headline, and some of you were probably totally confused by it. I don't know if it will help when you know that the next word is "Rainbow."

It's a wonderful song, though, from a show called Finian's Rainbow. It's all about following a dream. Or, at least, about following the fellow who follows the dream.


Anyway... I'm going to be humming that all evening, now. And it really only has a passing relationship to the point of this posting.

As I was leaving work, today, after a not-awful-but-not-grand week at work, I stepped out of the front of the building and looked up to see a brilliant rainbow in the sky. In fact, it was not only so vibrant that all of the colors looked like they were out of a fresh box of Crayolas, but it even had a second rainbow just a little higher in the sky.

What a wonderful way to celebrate the end of the work week!

**If you want to hear the song -- and I highly suggest it -- you can find it, here, on YouTube. The actual song, sung by Fred Astaire and Petula Clark, starts about 3 minutes into this clip.**
