I Love a Rainy Night

I love a rainy night, I really do!  I also love the song by Eddie Rabbitt.

I remember when I was a kid how much I loved going to bed when it was raining and listening to the pitter patter of the drops of rain hitting  the roof. There was also a downside to the rain.  My Dad worked for the  City Street Department and if it rained too much they could not do street work so he would be off work without pay. I worried about that.

To this day I love hearing the rain on my roof.  However, it has to rain pretty hard for me to hear it inside the house. You can't hear snow hitting the roof but I hate for it to be snowing
because I know I will have to deal with it the next day when I get my mail and Paper. But rain is different, you don't have to shovel rain!

In fact it is raining here tonight.  But by the time I get to bed it will probably have stopped.
Anyway, I can remember the  way it sounds and pretend I am a kid again!
