This morning I said "Man, I hope I get out there in time for the rain". Going through the puddles is wonderdful!
I had to read this to wife, because last night, it was misting lightly and my wife wanted me to take the van to work. I wanted to ride my bike to work. I tried to explain that any given day, just about any given weather conditions I would rather take the bike. She just doesn't get it.
When I read your post to her, she replied "Wow, you are not the only crazy person."
