I took this photo of the rainbow spread across the sky on Friday afternoon...it was August 5 and exactly 23 years since I said goodbye to my Grandad Dell in those early morning hours at AMC Hospice. I posted the photo of Grandad Dell on my FB and it just captured the man he was to me...fun, happy, a great smile and sense of humor in his favorite place...Ruidoso. That afternoon, I sat in the backyard and a butterfly flew by and around me...I just know it was a sign that he was saying that he was nearby and always would be...then, the boys called me outside a while later and there was a giant rainbow spread across the sky. In fact, it was a double rainbow and the colors, although fading, were bright and beautiful...another sign that Grandad Dell is watching over us and still part of me. Boy, I sure would like to be able to give him a real hug and see his smile and hear his laughter. I still miss him so much.
