Beacon is a Pot of Gold at the End of This Rainbow

Wishing wells were soaking in the long-overdue rain this weekend, which hopefully added a bit to the reservoirs! Beacon residents and visitors from all over caught glimpses of rainbows and double rainbows this afternoon after a moody day of heavy winds and rain. During a few moments of sunshine, this double rainbow appeared, heading straight to our Instagram files, but it's been pulled here to the blog, too, for you to find in our permanent archives.

Once we spotted the rainbow, we definitely wanted to look for a pot of gold-wrapped chocolates. From this picture's angle and the intensity of the light, it looks like the source may be on Verplanck - or maybe a side street that houses a few intensely creative types who've just had especially amazing ideas, and shot off a rainbow storm (as opposed to a brainstorm).
