Default What to do on a rainy day.

My son and daughter-in-law are in for a few days. It looks like it's going to rain all day today. Any ideas on what we can do?

We do housework.
Thank God we have been having regular rainy days, or we would be living in squalor!

I'm talking about things to do with visitors. I don't think that I can get them to do our housework for us.

Don Garlits Racing Museum in Ocala is huge, interesting and takes some time to see.

Go swimming, rain never bothers you in a pool.

Take them to the Market of Marion. It's easy to kill a couple of hours there. Stop on the way home for a bite to eat.

take them to the space museum where you can see all the former space capsules. It is either in Orlando or Cocoa Beach area, not sure.
