Wintertime in Porterville

WOW, the once brown mountains are now GREEN! No joke, the pictures to the left are the same mountains that were brown all throughout the summer and fall. It's amazing what the rainfall did!


It keeps raining, and today, the most beautiful rainbows (TWO of them!) appeared in the sky. I took these pictures of them from just outside of my classroom. They seriously look as if they've landed right in the backyard of the homes pictured. I've never seen rainbows so bright and so close in all of my life!












And to add to the winter fun, the mountains further off in the distance now are snow-capped! Because of all the rain, we can now clearly see them everyday. It is so beautiful!










And of course, Jeremiah and I had to take a picture so that we can prove just how close and how bright those rainbows were today!
