| 960 | Article | Vaporman87 | Ahhh... you really know how to bring out the nostalgia in a reader. Yes, rainy days COULD be fun. To be honest, I don't remember much about what we would typically do during elementary school recesses that were rained out. If I'm not mistaken, we would hang out in class or the gym. This was not nearly as fun as being outside (and under less focused supervision). Yet, rainy days did have a special quality about them. For me, it forced me to draw more on my inner creativity... creating new ways to enjoy my toys or new ideas for crafting or drawing things that interested me. Everything from forts in the garage made of refrigerator boxes (my family owned a furniture store until the mid-90's) to robots made with cardboard, construction paper, markers, and tape. I didn't particularly like playing IN the rain though. However, it did provide some neat chances to create mini landscapes for my toys to live in... landscapes with "ponds" and "rivers". This was a great article. Thanks for this vkimo!!! | Remembering Rainy Days | Jan 30, 2014 | |
| 961 | Article | ThatDudeintheHoodie | Rainy days were something that I will never forget as a kid. It was usually fun to be inside every once in a while. I never liked getting wet when I didn't want to. But I enjoyed the rain enough to like it every once in a while. It's nice though living where there is a really big rainy season and looking outside from my desk at my job watching the rain fall. | Remembering Rainy Days | Jan 30, 2014 | |
| 962 | Article | pikachulover | Angelinos can't deal with rain! No really we can't. All that stuff they make fun of on tv about people not handling the rain is true. The news coverage is funny too. It's usually called something like "Stormwatch (and the year number)". The schools aren't built for rain around here. The junior high I went to didn't have an indoor cafeteria or gym. It makes you hearty to spend at least 40 minutes in a wooden patio covered area. Then you would shiver at P.E. Strangely enough the streets don't drain that well either. Even if they do go directly into the ocean. I remember the particularly rainy winters of 91-93, and in 97/98 (an el nino year)and in 2004. I think I went insane during those winters. In 2004 it was hard because I went to this college that had bad irrigation. You'd have to wade through water just to get to your classes. | Remembering Rainy Days | Jan 30, 2014 | |
| 963 | Article | vkimo | Man, I totally forgot about building forts! Couch forts were also a big staple of rainy days. My brother and I would take all the large couch cushions and drape sheets over them and bring all our toys in. | Remembering Rainy Days | Jan 30, 2014 | |
| 965 | Article | Vaporman87 | Forts, tunnels, "trampolines"... all great couch cushion creations. Occasionally they became "buildings" for my sister and I to destroy Godzilla style (complete with a rolled up blanket tucked into the back of my pants as a "tail"). They also make great "chairs" to hit opponents with when you're "wrestling". lol | Remembering Rainy Days | Jan 30, 2014 | |
| 974 | Article | Fulton4V | I spent most rainy days hoping that the water would flood our road so I didnt have to go to school the next day. The bus could not come throuh the water when it was too high. | Remembering Rainy Days | Feb 02, 2014 | |
| 1006 | Article | MissM | This was a nice article. I liked the sounds of rain playing as I read. Thanks for sharing these memories! Rainy days were always fun and special. Occasionally if the time permitted, my mom would bake chocolate chip cookies when it was raining out. Always fun for a rainy day. | Remembering Rainy Days | Feb 18, 2014 | |
| 1096 | Article | DoctorRyan | I have always loved rainy days, even as an adult. Those were my "gaming days" when I would fire up my NES for some 8-bit action. Today it's games like Baldur's Gate and Diablo II. I guess that's another thing I brought from my childhood. | Remembering Rainy Days | May 21, 2014 | |
