When we started this conversation a few hours ago it wasn't raining. I'm
just about ready to leave work for the day and yes, now it's been raining
here since about the time we started talking about it. Sigh.

I'm not really prepared. Normally that wouldn't bother me as headed home I
don't really care how wet I get but...I'm am, of course, not going
immediately home and am meeting some folks for coffee.

I dashed over the big mart store across the street and got a cheap poncho,
my pants are convertible and will be shorts in no time, I'm already wearing
sandals and will lose the socks (gotta have 'em at work otherwise I'd lose
'em). And, as I have a bicycle cap I'll be pulling low down to my brow line
and Voila! Ready for rain.

Of course if it weren't in the 70's (which is actually cool for us here)
it'd be a slightly different story - at least comfort-wise.

[And here it is my Quickbeam's first day out after a cockpit change. Trial
by water I suppose.]

Aloha all!
