summer rains sure are unexpected, aren’t they?

Don’t wear I’m from no rain at all

“Can you hear me? That when it rains and shines (when it rains and shines) It’s just a state of mind (when it rains and shines)” (Beatles)

I’m gaming in the rain,

I’m gaming in the rain,

What a glorious felling,

I’ve reached level seven again!

What was side three of ELO’s double album “Out of the Blue,” is ‘Concerto for a Rainy Day;’ with the songs “Standin’ in the Rain,” “Big Wheels,” “Summer and Lightning,” and the big hit, “Mr. Blue Sky.” On CD, the Concerto is tracks 10-13.

I was such a lazy kid, I envied people in wheelchairs. So of course I liked rainy days as an excuse to stay in.

My ideal summer day! Especially in this time of drought.

For Jason to play video games, most likely.

Too each their own idyllic summer day. (I live where we could use the rain though.)
