There’s something fantastical about a rainbow. It’s a special kind of magic, the type that makes you wide eyed and open mouthed as a child, and the sweetest reprieve from a rainy day as an adult. Since Tennessee is the most fantastic state, we thought it MUST produce the most beautiful rainbows ever – and here’s what we found.
- We love how intense this arch is! A whole rainbow.
