Chris, you are the man. I know whereof you speak.
However, I must say, that the rain that you're talking about only occurs in our neck of the woods during the summer. For example, today, we had a great drizzle, with temperatures between freezing and something a little higher.
Personally, I prefer snow.
Nevertheless, it's my goal to conquer this situation. Without being facetious, I currently hope that you and your "go-get-em" attitude will show up around here and tackle the, "wet pu$$y syndrome."
(By the way, have you ever had temperatures below freezing where you live?
)
