Watching the rain from the porch

Sit somewhere dry outside and watch, listen to and count the rain.

Steps

  1. Sit together under the porch or in an open doorway.
  2. Close your eyes and listen for one minute.
  3. Name every sound you heard: drips, gutters, cars.
  4. Pick two drops on the railing and cheer for the one you think falls first.
  5. Hold out a hand and count the drops that land in ten seconds.

Next time, don’t search — shake Snowlan.
