Day 60 - 38° - rainy, damp - Spring Meadows Park
I love to hear the sounds around me as I walk, so I don’t have an ipod. Besides, if I had music playing in my ear, how could I possibly think about my blog.
Today was rainy and damp. It took some motivation to get out there with my umbrella and boots. So I imagined myself as part of the cast of Glee when they did their rendition of Singing in the Rain http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nyR0J8bgmgo and off I went.
I must say, it was a great walk (except that Molly got wet and muddy!). When I walk in the rain, I love to listen to the different sounds that the rain makes; the drizzling on my umbrella, the splashing around my feet as I walk through puddles, the drip, drip of rain falling on the tress, the spraying sound the cars make on wet streets and the rushing water in the creek. It is a beautiful mix of sounds. And most often, I am out there alone with nature surrounding me.
What do I suggest to the guests when it rains during their stay at the Red Cardinal B&B? In the warmer weather, I invite them to sit on the front porch and relax with a book or their kindle and enjoy some homemade refreshments. If they want to go out, I tailor their trip to suit their interests - antique stores, wineries, museums, shopping for something unique, or best of all I suggest they take a ride around the area. I tell them that you never know where you will see a rainbow!
