Ah, just when we thought it was safe to be dreaming about our new home, we learned this morning that the well in summer produces less than a gallon a minute. If someone were trying to build a house on this property now, it would not qualify for a permit. Now it's likely that a well test today would show a higher production because of the winter rains, but in the summer when we would need a lot of water for our dream gardens, the water would simply not be available. So, we've decided to not buy it. Fini.

So, back to dreaming about something we haven't yet found. In the meantime, here are two photos of a rainbow that showed up in the woods behind our house. After yesterday's crazy snow began to melt and the sun burst through in a dazzling blue sky, the rainbow appeared. It's an interesting phenomenon, this little rainbow in the trees. I've only seen it once before, and it was here in this backyard last month. None of my google searching shows me anything quite like it.
