"If you like pina colata's .... "

Last night I went to spend the evening at the Farm and enjoy some curry and relaxation. Driving back from the store the storm clouds loomed but it was nothing too worrisome. Levi and I were hanging out regailing the prospect of rowing clubs in D.C. when Kev came in and asked for our help. It had started to pour (more like monsoon) and he needed help quickly constructing an enclosure to cover the yearling goats in the far paddock. There was no point in grabbing an umbrella and my sandals weren't going to do much good - but I can't pass up jumping in a good puddle. It took about 20 minutes to construct an a-frame and scoop up the kids born this week and drop them in the barn. But by the end of it we were all soaked to the bone. It didn't help that I stopped on the trek out to the field and back to just stand and enjoy the downpour.

I think if you can afford to get wet (or have a spare set of clothes) that everyone should stop and let the rain fall down on them. It is a nice way to let go. Once you get soaked there really is no turning back and no logical motivation to worry about silly things - especially staying dry.
