Is Summer over? Not quite yet, but summer won't be around for very long.

Summer is on its way out, and fall is nearly here. Football is going to be returning to our TVs soon, and the pumpkin spice latte is already back at Starbucks and most coffee shops.

I was curious, so I posted the question on Facebook. Coloradans commented and let us know their favorite activities when it is raining outside. Here are the results.

Some Things I Discovered

It is obvious that we needed a break from the heat here in Colorado. NASA has reported that it was the hottest summer in America since 1880. Your great-great-great grandparents would only understand the value of having cooler weather during the hot summer months.

I also learned that when the rain comes, we like to have lazy days. Not one person on the Facebook post mentioned going to the gym, the grocery store, or anything of that nature. Which, I fully approve of. When it is gross outside, we use it as an opportunity to give ourselves a day to recharge.

Rainy days offer some truly therapeutic elements, like soothing sounds. Just listening to the rain has the ability to lower stress levels and can put some people in a meditation-like trance. - All About Introverts
