Comments on: It Never Rains in Seattle http://raincityguide.com/2008/11/05/it-never-rains-in-seattle/ Seattle's Leading Resource for Real Estate Information Sat, 20 Mar 2010 16:58:13 -0700 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: ARDELL http://raincityguide.com/2008/11/05/it-never-rains-in-seattle/#comment-328079 ARDELL Fri, 07 Nov 2008 03:45:18 +0000 http://raincityguide.com/?p=3235#comment-328079 Hi Mary! I didn't write this post and my Dad never left Philly. "kicked around the same six blocks all of his life" as they say :) I thought of this post as I was out in the rain today, Galen. What we need is a shot of people walking the streets in the rain...with no umbrella in sight. What I love most about Seattle is how the people act like its not raining and just go about their business as if the sun is out. It takes some practice, and I use hoods at times (never an umbrella) but until you learn to walk in the rain as if it isn't raining at all...you won't make it in Seattle. I hate movies that are supposedly in Seattle that show 50 umbrellas in the shot. They've obviously never been here in the rain. Hi Mary!

That is riotously funny. Seattle is indeed a stunning city, but the weather there is a deterrant for a sun dependent person like me.
