Among Friends

I was in a parking lot today during a summer shower.  It's amazing how many people run across parking lots in the rain.

I think being partially moist from rain is very uncomfortable and I don't want to arrive "drowned" wherever I am going.

I have an umbrella in the car always.!

[On It]

Yes.

NO......in Phoenix, rain is a "main event" usually preceded by DAYS of announcements on the news.....

No, I have an umbrella in the house and carry it  when it's raining. Don't always keep one in the car. 

I'm not sure what you mean by "aging how many people run across the parking lot in the rain." Maybe you meant to use another word? Not sure what aging has to do with this.

Yes.  About 10 of them!  I can never remember if I took an umbrella out of the car when I got home -- so I just keep adding to the collection!  😂

I keep two umbrellas in the car in case there is a passenger who needs one.

@ECBG    I don't own a  umbrella.  In 22 years of living in NM, I've never needed one.  If and when it ever rains, we're so busy celebrating, we don't notice were getting wet.  So far, .85" of precip this year and that was snow.

Of course, I thought everyone did. You never know when you will need it so why not be prepared.

[Krimpette]

Yes.  I believe I've always done that.

@Desertdi    Then if and when it actually happens, everyone lines up at the windows and watches, awe-struck, for as long as it lasts.
