What is one of your best rainy day memories?
My Cousin Sarah and I got to stay at our Great Grandma's house together, and it was raining, and she told us we didn't have to be cooped up, we could go play in the rain. This was very exciting, because it's not something our parents would have gone for. So we twirled around and leapt in puddles and licked raindrops off rose petals. When we were done our Gran put us in a hot bath, and made us hot tea and treats. She brought out a big bag of costume jewelry and let us go through it, we tried everything on, and thought we were very fancy, and she let us keep our favorite ones.

My favorite is not much different than yours, actually. There was a creek behind the house over which was a hefty tree limb with a rope tied to it where kids could play Tarzan & cross it with. Puddles? Of course, and crawdads and frogs. And it's how I learned a short verse in the process--
A rose
Knows
How good mud feels between the toes.
I suppose that's why I turned out to love fishing in the rain. That's when they bite best, usually.
@ClaraListensprechen4 @RickiTarr I will second that, a lot of my best rainy days involved fishing.
@ClaraListensprechen4 That sounds wonderful
