I was thinking, &#8220;Why don&#8217;t I just park this thing and be done with it for the day?&#8221; I was soaked all the way through all my clothes and getting cold riding on the mower. &#8220;Just another 15 minutes and I&#8217;ll be done,&#8221; says my internal voice (like it always does).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then I looked up and saw a full, very bright and vibrant double rainbow.
