What is one of your best rainy day memories?

My Cousin Sarah and I got to stay at our Great Grandma's house together, and it was raining, and she told us we didn't have to be cooped up, we could go play in the rain. This was very exciting, because it's not something our parents would have gone for. So we twirled around and leapt in puddles and licked raindrops off rose petals. When we were done our Gran put us in a hot bath, and made us hot tea and treats. She brought out a big bag of costume jewelry and let us go through it, we tried everything on, and thought we were very fancy, and she let us keep our favorite ones.

@RickiTarr I was… seven? And up until then, I was raised in The Great Drought of the late 80s and early 90s in Los Angeles, so my first memory of rain is when it suddenly poured for like a week, and I watched out the dinning-room floor-to-ceiling windows as the rainwater sluiced off the concave angle where two parts of the roof met, down into the camellias and the ornamental banana plant growing by our house. It was magical.
