Yesterday I drove through a rainbow tunnel.
Seriously. A perfect
arch over Highway 52. Two lanes and a bit of gravel. That’s it. Just me. Out in
the country. A shaft of sunlight hits this patch of fog, and there it is.
At first,
there was no way I was going to drive through it. Too beautiful. I’d ruin it.
Then I’m like, The hell with that. We’re talking once-in-a-lifetime here, with possibility
of Unicorns.
Woof! I’m in.
Woof! I’m out.
I look in my rear-view. Nothing but a
hole, widening in the pale fog.
I look ahead.
Far, far ahead.
