Colors of the Wind

              I have some awesome news today. My posts have been a bit slow because I am mostly just writing about my little picture game. Well, I am here to tell you that I have started a second little game with just one person. This means instead of just one post, you guys get to read two each week!!! I'm slowly, but surely, working my way up to being a real blog that actually interests people!! Woo hoo!! Haha. So this week is our inaugural week of my little side game. And the theme was rainbows. Now it would be easy to just show pictures of actual rainbows, but that might get a little dull after about 2 days, don't you think? Therefore, we added a little kick and decided to make it rainbow things. The pictures we each found are actually pretty cool. Most of them aren't naturally rainbow colored, and some that could be still look interesting. Along with each picture, in order to keep the game on a semi- down low, I posted little quotes. For example, in looking for my pictures one day, the song "Rainbow in the Sky" by Ziggy Marley stuck in my head. Thus, with my picture I left the lyric "There's a rainbow in the sky, all the time"... Or, of course, the classic "Somewhere Over the Rainbow". One also, being Irish, thinks of leprechauns and pots of gold. Rainbows are pretty, rare, and fun to play with. People love to see them, and often believe that they are good luck. I personally would love to find a leprechaun and trick him into giving me his gold. For as legend has it, if you spot a leprechaun near a rainbow you must catch him and never blink while staring him down. In doing this, you can force him to take you to his pot of gold and once there, you must trick him out of it. It is a nearly impossible task because in a mere blink, they are gone. Leprechauns are tricky little fairies. And enough with that tangent, back to the rainbows. The pretty sights that are mere re-fractions of light. Now on to my pictures. As usual, I shall put up a bunch so you can appreciate the awesomeness of the game. Enjoy, and stay tuned for next week's themes.
