While about to leave Monmouth Beach, NJ at 6:39 pm on June 30, 2020 I saw this rainbow. Nice to see something beautiful and positive during the COVID-19 global pandemic.
These clouds were on Rural Route 3 in Haldimand, ON. This was after we chartered a little outboard motor boat to get close to the Mohawk Island lighthouse in July 2009.
The sun hid behind the evening clouds as we motored back to Bayfield, WI on Sept. 12, 2009. We finally saw the Sand Island light.
