It's been raining here for a week (!!!) and I still haven't found my
umbrella. Fortunately I have coats with hoods. 
I don't know how much rain we've had because the gauge is broken but
it's got to be 5" or better. For us, that's a heck of a lot. I saw a few
spots of sunlight earlier today, really lifted my spirits, but it's all
black again. It's got to end soon!

me neither - I have an ancient pea coat from LL Bean plus a really old
pair
of Bean boots (great) and an old Harris tweed driving cap from Land's
End
that I wear when the weather gets really nasty here.  Fortunately that's
not
too often.
