    I always wondered. Which end of the rainbow has the pot o' gold? Both?
    Two rainbows? 4 pots o' gold?

    I once saw a double, full end to end rainbow.
    It was a wonderful experience. For some reason it made me really happy.

    Well, here is an old one that shows the myth may be true. The picture was taken at a mine I was working at in the Gobi desert of Mongolia. The blue building is the headframe for a 1300m vertical shaft. The gold was there but it wasn't nicely packaged in a pot.Name:  2008 Gobi Rainbow.jpg
