Some places live up to their clichés. In the west of Ireland, we saw more rainbows in one week than we had in the preceding ten years back in the States. They came down in abundance_singles, doubles, some far off, some right outside the window of the car. We even saw some touch down in the foreground, in front of the horizon line, just right there_and you can imagine the ensuing scramble for leprechauns and pots of gold. But, alas, our rainbows only found power lines and penny walls.
