San Antonio Camera Phone: "Here Comes The Rain(bow) Again."

Trapped in a welcome pattern.

Here in San Antonio, we've been crying for rain for sometime now. This summer was blistering hot and Death Valley dry. The past few days have seen showers and thunderstorms pass through town and you can see the relief on San Antonio residents' faces. Yesterday on RErockstar.com, I posted "San Antonio Camera Phone: Here Comes The Rain Again." If you jump over there, you'll see the looming clouds that soon brought rain.

I took the photo on my way home from RE/MAX Access in Garden Ridge, heading westbound on the 1604. A few minutes after the photo, the skies opened up. Of course, I had to stop by the grocery store (you always need to when it's raining it seems). Heading through the HEB at 7951 Guilbeau Road (map) and grabbing a few items to complete my dinner for the night, I was convinced that tornadoes would be swirling around when I left the store. Instead, I was greeted by the view in the image above. Not only did we get rain, but we even had a rainbow to go with it. A welcome site here in San Antonio.
