As you can guess I'm not having the best day, and coming home from some comfort food, I noticed a rainbow on the horizon, but it was "upside down." I was looking at the lower arc of a regular rainbow.

But for a split second my brain was all "Ah, that explains the bad day. Glitch in The Matrix."

The clouds were just too socked in. This was the only pic I got out of six hours of shots.

Still, two out of three once in a lifetime events ain't bad.

"And no one knows the where's or why's,
"But something stirs and something tries,
"And starts to climb toward the light."

Random ham radio tip: if you're new, DO NOT BUY THE LATEST AND GREATEST RADIO WITH THE MOST BELLS AND WHISTLES THAT COST $$$.

Get something used or older, and basic. Learn how to use it. Operating technique and antenna has a lot more to do with radio than how much money you spend on anything (radio or antenna).

I've made most of my contacts on vintage radios, on antennas made out of scrap wire and PVC. Never paid more than $10 for an HF antenna, most of them are made out of junk I found on the side of the road.

I like our side.

As an aside, I would like to strongly urge you to use different passwords on every single website you have an account on so that if one website gets pwned, it does not affect your accounts anywhere else.
