It has always amazed me how people will actually get out of the lake when it starts raining. I've thought that was crazy since i was a little kid. And as a lake kid even then I knew to get out at the first hint of lightening and pretty well how to judge when thunder was on the way.
I was reminded of this over the weekend when my common law daughter in law told my granddaughter "we can't go swimming until it stops raining." But I talked them in to it and we had a blast. Some of the people said they had NEVER swam in the rain. I could not believe that. But at least the granddaughter will never have to admit such a silly thing.
It's really cool watching the rain actually bounce off the water. And we temporarily caught a painted turtle to show the little one.
