Ha! I laugh at rain.

I forgot to mention, at the start of our Wyalusing trip, it was freaking pouring rain in Madison as we loaded the boat and trailer. Ugh. I had grabbed an "ancient" Triple Point jacket from several years ago, and, not all that surprisingly, I found it had lost all its water repellency. I felt like I was wearing a wet Ziploc bag, or a wet diaper, once I'd been out in the rain for a while.

Fortunately, Rutabaga had an immediate answer to my problem. I picked up a nice Marmot jacket (at Jim's nice price break)--it's bright green. I feel like a key lime pie wearing it. Mmm. Pie. Porky's deep-fried key lime pie.



Sorry, I got sidetracked. Anyway, that was basically my train of thought as I walked in the barely-raining yesterday with Abby. I'm just really glad I have a jacket that's actually water-repellent. The rain's been here all weekend and seems to have no intention of leaving, so for now I'm set. Prepared to laugh, rather than cry, at the rain.

Except now I want some of that pie...
