in a perfect world

it would always rain on sundays in the summertime. That way, it would always rain at Ultimate. Yesterday, playing in the rain - sometimes just a sprinkle, sometimes a full on downpour - it was really the best. It wasn't sunny, it wasn't hot, I felt like I could run forever! There was no worries about sunscreen or making sure to stay hydrated. Except for the part about driving home sitting in a wet seat, it was one of the best weeks this summer. And really, if it rained every week, I would know to plan and bring a towel so that wouldn't happen again.

If I couldn't get rain every week, or if other people didn't like the idea, I think it'd be nice maybe to take a vote and come to a consensus of what the ideal weather should be that day, that'd be ok. Sometimes it's nice to have a warm sunny day, but sometimes you just need cool and breezy. Maybe I could become friends with Dave Dahl or Sven Sundgaard and they could hook me up with some nice weather on the weekends. If they can't, there's always Paul Douglas, I know he'll help me out.

I'm definitely not a fan of rain. While I enjoyed playing yesterday... today I have a runny nose and headache. Didn't my mom tell me not to play in the rain? Ugh.

Perfect weather for me would be between 70-80 degrees. No wind.

Anna Leisa, you should come play ultimate with us sometime!
And Jon, maybe next time it rains we could have a slicker there for you or something, or a thermos of hot tea, maybe?
