Go for a long long walk or jog in the rain with someone, if it is not lightening, and get totally soaked. Otherwise, go to someplace indoors to walk, such as the mall in Ocala, and then to a movie; or go to Katie Belle's - it is usually busy there when it is rainy, or to Margarita Republic's, Urban Flats, or Havana - someplace where there is live music; or drive to a nice mall, like in Sanford, to shop and to take a long walk. If it is a rainy night that they have a live band, we also sometimes like to go to The Vue nightclub in Clermont. I really like to get out, and get wet, and do something when it is raining, not stay in. Also, if it is rainy for very long I go to the tanning bed to get the UV light, which is so important. (I don't buy the sunscare tactics; research shows that being without sunlight is much more of a health risk than getting a moderate amount of sun - just be sure not to get burned; that is when you are risking health problems). Sunshine and being outdoors alot is one of the main reasons I moved to Florida, so let the rain come, let the winds blow, I will be out doing something, regardless.
