#*^#%@ Rain!
(We desert dwellers can be exceedingly mercurial when it comes to our weather tolerances.)
We've had another inch of rain since dawn...or what passed for dawn in our cloud-laden skies. Despite the post title, I'm not complaining, but Abbye is. Her ombrophobia has been well-documented on these pages so I'll not reprise those eccentricities. Suffice it to say that thus far this morning I've (a) carried her two blocks back home under an umbrella after an aborted attempt to make it to the park during a lull in the rain and (b) driven her to the park during another short-lived lull.
To her credit, during (b) and even while the rain began to fall again, she attended to business -- and quickly, I might add -- and raced back to the truck.
We all feel much better now.
My Mac is the same way. Hates the rain and avoids it at all costs!

Rachel, I'll bet Mac has to put up with rain a lot more often than Abbye does!

We'd be happy to take some of that rain off your hands. Enjoy it while it lasts!
