Did you ever take a bath with your clothes on?

I was brought up in a household where people just did not do that. I seem to remember someone telling me that was the kind of behavior that crazy people exhibit.

Yada-yada-yada. Or let me quote Mr. Flintstone: Yabba-dabba-do. No, actually, yada-yada-yada fit better.

I just came in from the rain. That warm, smooth, calm almost-summer rain. It is a privilege to live where the rain is warm enough to bathe in. Granted, it was a little brisk, it being morning and all, but it was great!

I can't wait until the river in the valley beneath my house is warm enough to swim in it.

Summer...
