Rain? Really?

I don't know why it makes me laugh so hard when people around here (Bay Area) freak out at the slightest drops of rain on the road. We hardly ever get any rain, but when we do, it's the end of the world for them. People start freaking out, they don't go to work, they whine and complain about how wet it is outside. how lame.

That whole process got me thinking and missing actual rain. You know the kind that just comes down in torrents, soaking everything, loud and replenishing. Sitting on the porch or watching out the garage door (like back in Corpus Christi) waiting for a bit of respite, so you can go ride your motorcycle. Nonetheless, still a very cool thing that I am missing at the moment.

Off to Seattle for the weekend with some friends on the bikes. Maybe we'll get some decent rain on the way up.

photos to come.
