On my way out of work yesterday I drove down to the Des Moines marina, and snapped this pic (not with my nice camera, but with the little Cannon point and shoot that I always carry in my purse). I thought it turned out pretty well. :)

So I just drove home from work and saw the MOST GORGEOUS RAINBOW EVER! Seriously, the end was right next to me, and I could see the whole thing.
