As Wendy and I were driving back from yesterday's book-club gathering, we were completely astonished by the sudden appearance of a huge, unbelievably vivid rainbow in what seemed like a massive arc over Ypsilanti. I honestly don't think I've ever seen such rich reds and greens in a rainbow before.
We even saw it reflected in the river as we crossed over Riverside Park. The effect was downright fantastical.
After I got home, I saw people out of their houses all up and down the street, camera phones aloft.
What a sight!
Wendy coined the phrase "a hug over Ypsi" to describe it, and that's exactly what it looked like.
