Possibly the best thing about frequent and intermittent showers are rainbows. It might make grilling difficult but there is nothing as beautiful as a rainbow. This rainy whether has been challenging for our farmers too. My father has been battling against rain to get the haying done but I think the rain will make our second cutting in August that much better. Nothing makes the end of a long day out on the fields more rewarding then something simple but delicious. Grilling also gives one the opportunity to enjoy the gorgeous Catskill evenings.For the fourth we BBQ'd. The menu included turkey burgers, chickpea salad with feta, traditional potato salad and corn on the cob. So perfect.

Beautiful photo. Looks like you could find a pot of gold on each end of that rainbow.
lovely photo!
That rainbow is the epitome of perfection and beauty!
Both of these photos are gorgeous. If I spied a rainbow like that after each shower the months of rains we've endured would be worth every drop.
nice, a monkey's birthday! (thats what we call it when it rains and the sun is still out...)
What a gorgeous picture! And delicious spicy burgers!
Rainbows are the best, beautiful photo. And those burgers sound delicious.
There are some lovely rainbows over the hills here in NZ.
Beautiful....
Oh my lord is that rainbow real?! It's been years since I've seen one and you're making me extremely jealous. Burgers sound amazing as well, hope the rain doesn't thwart your family's efforts for too much longer!
