Let It Rain….Day Two Hundred, Thirty Seven

July 25, 2011 By Jodi

We got a break from the heat today; it came in the form of rain.

After nearly a week of not walking, I was amped up and ready to go, as were Sampson and Delilah.

We weren’t going to let a little rain stop us, so we piled into the car.

As soon as we got to the park it began raining in earnest.Β  We went anyway.

Sampson and Delilah were so happy to be out of the house and running through the woods again.Β  I tried desperately to get some pictures but due to the rain, they are rather dark.

We were only out for about 25 minutes; I had to cut it short because the bug spray (from countless applications) was running off my hat into my eyes, so I ended up taking my hat and glasses off.Β  Thankfully it wasn’t so dark that I couldn’t see. πŸ™‚

As soon as we stepped out of the park near the car, the rain let up.Β  It stopped about 45 minutes after we got home. πŸ™

Here is a picture of me when we got home.

Chet said, “There’s a glare on it.”Β  But once we looked closer we realized that was where my fanny pack sat (for treats, cell phone and poop bags.)

Literally the only dry spot on my person.

The dogs didn’t fare much better, but we were all happier for the much-needed exercise.

Wet but happy.

      I just can’t express how good it was to get out walking! Even though we have had a couple of lake excursions it is not the same. I miss my walks with the dogs.

      That really stinks. I wish I could bottle it up and send it down. Unlike most people, I really love the rain and have no problem walking in it. πŸ™‚

    Sometimes a walk in the pouring rain is exactly what I need. The dogs look quite thrilled!

    And that is a very unfortunate spot. ;-P
