Double rainbow, y’all
Ah… The sun is out, birds are chirping, and I’m feeling pretty darn good.
Maybe not as good as the double rainbow guy, but good nonetheless. 🙂
What are you up to today? I just finished a slow trot on the treadmill, and now I’m getting ready to head to the city to check out an Impressionists exhibit (my favorite movement!) at the Legion of Honor museum.
I get the feeling we’re in for another hot one today. Care to cool off in the surf with me before I jet?

I just sent both of these vids to my sis yesterday, LOL! She was like…. “Um, I want some of whatever he’s having!”
Kylie says
I should have specified that I sent both the double rainbow vids to my sister 😉
I also recommend other vids by the Gregory brothers (the double rainbow song makers). Auto-tune the news is one of my favorite things on YouTube!
Nina says
Double rainbows FTW! 🙂
Having a lazy-ish day. Just had a ding in my windshield fixed and had some awesome fried chicken for lunch. Now im waiting on the Hubs because we need to go to Target. 🙂 He is resisting, as always.
Recessionista says

Amber says
All the way! Oh my god!
I saw a double rainbow in Hawaii. I wish I had known this song at the time.
Tomorrow is my husband’s birthday. We are celebrating tonight at the Cuban-Spanish-Mexican place that we love. Last night we went to our regular Friday night Asian bistro and were surprised to learn that his mom had already paid for our dinner as a birthday gift!

I’ve only seen double rainbows when I lived in Hawaii. 🙂 Born and raised there, I thought they were just second nature hehe. I’ve been in LA for the past 5 years for school and now I know they’re not such a common feature!

Kim says
Yes, we had a double rainbow just the other day! Maybe about 3 days ago…
And that music video was really friggin’ sweet! Plus, the guy is a cutie 😉
Elysha says
I’ve seen MANY double rainbows!!!! Probably helps that I grew up in the country though 🙂
That music video is awesome….it ALMOST makes me want to try it over my blackberry hehehe. Almost. I can’t believe it was all made on the iphone.
