The Greatest rainbow I've ever seen is outside my office in Hollywood
A complete rainbow over Hollywood is a site I've only seen on the Simpsons. Who knew Franklin and Orchid was the end of rainbow???

3. A lot of people bad-mouth it, but Hollywood can be quite beautiful
Esp. after a storm, esp when viewed from, say, Mt. Olympus or high up Nichols Canyon, where I used to live.

4. I saw that, too!
I work in Century City....noticed the ends of the rainbows touched--appropriately--Bel Air (in the hills) and Beverly Hills (Olympic Blvd.) (from my vantage point). Had the whole office absolutely giddy, too--a nice lift for the afternoon. :-)

It was one of the brightest, most dramatic rainbows I've ever seen.

5. I love how they appear at different places at once...
From the building I'm in, I could see almost exactly where it ended blocks away.

7. Made it to Pasadena about 10 minutes ago....
A spectactular, double rainbow. It's my daughter's ninth birthday today, so I'm credit for arranging this just for her. My seven-year-old son was blown away, too....he said he'll never forget this rainbow.

Nice to have a little beauty and hope in this world of ours....

6. I once saw a beautiful rainbow over Lake Michigan
It extended from the Field Museum to McCormick Place. Breathtaking.

Maybe I will put down the bong and go hit Profesor Griff Park for a good view of
the ocean. This is a gorgeous town after a rain.

9. This has now turned into one hellacious thunderstorm...
Easily the biggest, baddest thunderstorm I've ever seen directly over downtown LA and century city. Lightning like crazy, and pitch-black clouds. Wild to see!!

10. The sky is a blazing pink here in Westwood...
I can hear the thunderclaps coming from downtown.

Who says SoCal doesn't get any weather!
