Rain, rain – Go Away.

I was surprised when I recently found out that June is Madison’s rainiest month (according to weather.com). I always thought that “April showers bring May flowers” meaning April should always be the rainiest month. In the Kenosha/Milwaukee area (where I lived for the past 6 years) we got about 1/2 the amount of rain that Madison gets and it came in April like its supposed to!

Even though there is excess rain in Madison, I’m still loving living here! Madison is such a fun city with all kinds of people. Like when it downpoured this week – people were literally able to kayak down the street, AND THEY DID! (See below)

I wish I owned a kayak (and were brave enough) to kayak down the streets of Madison! I was driving home from Kohl’s when the crazy downpour hit last Monday. Going downhill felt like driving down a waterfall!

Even though all this is quiet exciting to see, I miss the sunshine.  Sunshine always makes both the sky and my emotions brighter. Rain and gloomy weather make me feel gloomy and very unmotivated.

Rain, rain – go away. Or at least buy me a new kayak.
